The "_" as a replacement is not ideal becaus it is too generic. It's
better to select a special character most likely not used for anything
else. A suggestion:

    epoch(:)    =>  #       (I agree with Sean)
    tilde(~)    =>  %

You can test allowable tag formats with:

    git check-ref-format debian/1.5%20091201

See git-check-ref-format(1) manual page
