I know what kind of distinction you're getting at, but when talking
about Subversion it's really best to avoid the terms "branch" or
"tag." We have cheap directory copies. If you make a copy and set it
read-only, that's like a tag. If you make a copy and set it
read-write, that's like a branch. There's no separate concept of a
branch or a tag.
