How things migrate really is dictated by your team & process. SVN is
just a tool that holds your project artifacts. It doesn't enforce
anything that you don't set it up to (via hook scripts and/or process
management).

Only tag what's supposed to move to production. If you can't isolate
those elements, then you need to re-evaluate your strategy, your
source layout, or your choice of SCM tools. Or, create branches from
100% approved versions and ONLY change items that can be approved
(then tagged & released) within a week. But that will quickly become
a branch-management nightmare.

Perhaps if you could describe for us your full process, someone could
propose a more workable solution. Giving details in drips and drabs
will just prolong the confusion, and may send you down the wrong path.
