* '''tags''' is the directory that holds '''copies''' of successful stages of '''trunk''' throughout the development of the project. (''Also called as '''Milestones''''')
* '''tags''' are never modified or edited. ''You may branch a directory of tag into branches under a workspace and then modify the branch and apply the changes back to trunk, but you should never change the contents of a tag''
*: When the word '''tag''' is used as a verb, it means copying the whole trunk into a sub-directory, in tags.
* The action of '''tag'''ing the trunk into '''tags''' is often referred to as a '''release'''.
* We use the '''tags''' directory to submit the work for marking. ''Your instructor will specify the requirements of a release.''
** A release is usually tagged by a version number like: R0.1, Prj0.2, As1_1.0
** When a release is due, your instructor will always mark the latest version of that release.
