It sounds like you are advocating using a model where we use tags to ensure that the referenced revisions are reachable from a head, and then refer to the sha ids of the revisions in the manifest. Is that correct?
Yup.
We can't currently do this though.
Paul has a patch intended to allow us to do this, but it's not been accepted upstream.
So in the short term we either have to have some other approach, or we have to use a customized version of repo.
If you don't want to use a patched repo, then what's the alternative approach that we will use until a fix has been accepted upstream?
Thanks,
James
