No, I beg to differ. You haven't been doing it that way. Take a look at: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/wicket/tags/wicket-1.3.6/pom.xml That is a release tag and it doesn't have a SNAPSHOT version. > > tag -> the moment where we cut the release > release -> the branch where the commits go to actually build the release Tags are supposed to be immutable. What would be the purpose of creating a SNAPSHOT tag, unless you're taking a snapshot of the source before some major refactoring or something? The wicket-{release version} tags should be reserved for release tags (and thus the pom.xml wouldn't have SNAPSHOT versions in them). The release tags should be able to be used to re-create the release. You have to have a tag for that or else your "release" branch (which you said gets committed to) would be altered and it would differ from the actual release (and thus you wouldn't be able to re-create the original release with it easily). Why would you go against the way that everyone else uses SVN? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org
