Branching and Tagging

This is based on the material in A Novices Tutorial on Subversion.

To make a tag, eg for a release, run a command line this checked-out head directory:

svn cp . https://svn.complete.org/offlineimap/offlineimap/releases/0.9.0

Subversion uses a "copy on write" method, so this does not actually use up disk space for a whole additional copy of the tree. Complete.org uses conventions as documented on the Subversion repository page for naming of releases and branches
