Oh, speaking of the Subversion guide, it also contradicts itself about how
releases should be tagged. In one place it says to use debian_version
tags, but in another place it says that svn-buildpackage --svn-tag should
be used. The latter just creates a tag equal to the version number,
without the debian_version prepended.
I'd rather go with the svn-buildpackage behavior; the debian_version part
of the tag name never seemed that useful. But we should probably clarify
it one way or the other (and a bunch of the packages I've uploaded have
the svn-buildpackage tags from before I noticed that difference).
