Careful with this ... While this is what I used to do (which is kinda odd,
since I only run snapshots!), in recent releases, especially since the
CD production was cut out of the release process, the time between
"tagging" and resumed development and new snapshots has dropped a LOT
to the point that it's difficult to catch. I think Ian's tip is a bit
safer.
