Tag is pure Github nonsense, apparently it does not allow
making relase without a tag.  IMO, to minimize confusion it
is best to keep them the same. Concerning checkout IIUC
canonical procedure is:

git clone
git checkout

and it seems to work fine.  What problem do you see?


Tag and branch are the same name, you will get
     warning: refname '1.3.8' is ambiguous.
And when you do checkout, it defaults to tag instead of branch.

Well, branch and tag really point to the same sources, so is
this a problem?



If we add more commits to 1.3.8 branch, then branch 1.3.8 and
tag 1.3.8 will point to different places.

(If we never make commits to 1.3.8 branch, then why create this branch?
We can make release on master branch then.)
