There have been times that I've created a branch just to have a stopping point to which I can go back, but I wasn't going to do any work on it, at least not yet

There have been times that I've created a branch just to have a stopping point to which I can go back, but I wasn't going to do any work on it, at least not yet, like two choices on how to re-factor something, try one, if it fails try the other, but keep both around for testing.

Hope this helps, then: git tag -a tagname git push --tags git checkout tagname http://git.or.cz/course/svn.html http://git.or.cz/course/svn.html BTW, it's also worth noting that hg can have tag merge conflicts (http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/GitConcepts http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/GitConcepts), which is just weird. For anyone looking to learn more about git, I haven't found a better resource than this talk: (video) http://blip.tv/file/4094854 http://blip.tv/file/4094854 (slides) http://www.slideshare.net/chacon/getting-git http://www.slideshare.net/chacon/getting-git That said, I migrated from hg to git, and I love them both way more than svn.
