Oops ... yes, but ...

Where do you keep track of all the versions in the field? In tags or
branches, or a combination of both? I'd assumed this was the
requirement that tags was fulfilling ...

If it *is* tags, then how about (1) the branch with the fix gets
copied into tags, (2) a distribution is prepared from this tag, (3)
at my leisure I merge the bug fix back into the trunk and then (4)
delete the branch.

What do you think?
