Different project name on release

Hello,

I just had a call from one of my collegues who is using Subclipse to
manage his program releases. He used to give the project folder a
different
name when releasing a program: "test" -> "test_1.0".
As far as I can remember, the Branch/Tag-command used to be a multi step
operation that offered the option to either use the project's name as
final
destination folder (eg. "test") oder provide a different project name
("test_1.0").
On the current implementation of the Branch/Tag command this has been
changed
to a one click procedure.
I'm curious why this change has been made as I promised to give my
collegue
an reasonable answer :-)

Regards,

Lars.

PS: Should I post this on dev, too ?
