Andrew Stitcher commented on PROTON-790:
----------------------------------------

In the current tree
{code}git tag 0.9-alpha-1 origin/0.9-alpha-1{code}
will create the kind of tag I'm talking about. It will need to be pushed after 
creating in the local repository too.
{code}git push origin 0.9-alpha-1{code}

> Use git tag for release (rather than branch)

> I think it would make sense to use git tags to indicate the versions of 
> releases including alphas and betas.
> So instead of having  branch with a single change on it we should use a tag 
> to indicate a release. This would also allow the branching structure and the 
> releases to be independent.
> As an example the recent 0.9-alpha-1 could be a tag on a 0.9-release  branch. 
> Or it could just be a tag on a one change branch (to change the version).
