As far as most git operations are concerned, tags are just another reference to 
a point in the tree, like a commit identifier. Using tags won't change the 
current development model at all.

I'd like to suggest that if we begin using tags, which I strongly support, we 
also start GPG-signing those tags. Git does support lightweight tags, but 
they're purely pointers to specific commits in the tree history. They don't 
support signing, aren't checksummed, and won't have a tagging message (e.g., 
"Release 3.4.0").

Recent versions of git support signed commits, as well, which might also be 
valuable for the project, given the large number of people with commit access.
