55 A note on the tags in Barry's git repository:
56 ---------------------------------------------
57 Each release will now have at least 3 tags. For example, if releasing
58 version 0.14, the tags will be:
60 barry-0.14 Tag on master branch, signifying the
61 development point that the release occured
62 barry-0.14.tar.bz2 Contains the exact contents of the
63 full tar.bz2 release tarball. If you
64 look far enough in the history logs, you will
65 find the barry-0.14 tag.
66 barry_0.14.orig.tar.gz Contains the exact contents of the debian
67 source package tarball. Again, barry-0.14
68 will be in this tag's history.
70 Basically, the first tag contains only the source code, and no generated
71 files. The second tag (tar.bz2) contains the source code and all
72 generated files. And the third tag (orig) contains all of tar.bz2
73 *except* the debian/ directory. They are arranged so all history
74 merges back into the main non-generated source development tree.
