I guess i wasn't clear enough. I am not so much concerned with when to use tags and when to use branches. I am still looking for a smooth development workflow. I created a libs-dir which i put on my python path an put my different apps in it. Okay, now i can refer to my apps from any project without copying the files. Great and a lot better than before.
So now i start to create different branches for an app, i create a development branch an change stuff. As the app is on my path my projects initially refer to the state/ branch of an app that ist currently checked out, right? That's what i refered to by "switching branches" (= changing the branch of my app in my libs-dir) Another (better?) idea i had looking at pip's docs was to take my libs- dir off the python path, put them in a git-repo and use pip to install my app. Pip's option to refer to certain tags and branches (http:// pip.openplans.org/requirement-format.html#version-control) seems pretty ideal in this situation. The only drawback i see is that i have to install and uninstall quite often if i want to test different branches/states of my app in a project. And now i am not sure which route is more promising or if there's even an easier way i don't regard at the moment. Hope that's more clear.
