48 A note on the tags in Barry's git repository:
49 ---------------------------------------------
50 Each release will now have at least 3 tags. For example, if releasing
51 version 0.14, the tags will be:
53 barry-0.14 Tag on master branch, signifying the
54 development point that the release occured
55 barry-0.14.tar.bz2 Contains the exact contents of the
56 full tar.bz2 release tarball. If you
57 look far enough in the history logs, you will
58 find the barry-0.14 tag.
59 barry_0.14.orig.tar.gz Contains the exact contents of the debian
60 source package tarball. Again, barry-0.14
61 will be in this tag's history.
63 Basically, the first tag contains only the source code, and no generated
64 files. The second tag (tar.bz2) contains the source code and all
65 generated files. And the third tag (orig) contains all of tar.bz2
66 *except* the debian/ directory. They are arranged so all history
67 merges back into the main non-generated source development tree.
