We've heard from a few people that "labels" are crucial. Usually, we
svn developers get confused, and say "But we have labels -- our cheap
copies are the same as labels!"

Now I'm getting the feeling that "labels" doesn't mean the same thing
to all people :-). Could you describe in some detail what they mean
to you and how you use them? Some concrete examples would be
great.

Thanks,
