Indeed please be *very* careful about *not* uploading until the whole
OCaml 3.10.1 is transitioned to testing.

In svn you tag doing copies (i.e. "svn copy") in a conventional path,
which is /tags/packages/PKGNAME/VERSION in our repository.
You should use svn-buildpackage for building packages. When doing so you
can pass --svn-tag before the final upload and svn-buildpackage will
find out the proper path. In our repo, since the path is non standard,
svn-buildpackage needs help. You should add a file debian/svn-deblayout
with the "tagsUrl" info. See for example the one available in the
"findlib" package:
zack@aquarium:~/pkg-ocaml-maint/packages/findlib/trunk$ cat debian/svn-deblayout
origDir=../upstream
origUrl=svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-ocaml-maint/trunk/packages/findlib/upstream
tagsUrl=svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-ocaml-maint/tags/packages/findlib
(The first two values are needed only if you have used "upstream" for
the dir containing the tarballs. If you have rather use, as recommended,
"tarballs" they won't be needed.)
Some handy shell aliases for svn-buildpackage (with also support for
cowbuilder) are available at
http://upsilon.cc/~zack/blog/posts/2007/09/svn-cowbuilder/index.html .
Cheers.
