| This is a cvsps idiosyncrasy, not something that has to do with

| autonomous), or they can refer to a repository higher up the
| directory tree.

It was written 2 years ago, before Bzr had built in support for tags. I think
someone started working on an update that switched over to "real" tags, but I
don't know that it was finished.

So... hysterical raisins.
