you make a valid point.

Now for the same users, it may be a good idea to make the tag
more search friendly as well.

Perhaps something like
 x.y-rc

and thus a .0 release has a clean tag 2.4.0 for example and
search engine results are cleaner, since they are not littered
with 2.4.0-RC and 2.4.0-RC2 etc.

What do you think ?

Trivial: the less numbers and more natural toward user the better. "dev" "test" and "prod" are natural + POSIX time is very easy and natural to understand and standard. 1 scriptsyncbuild conveniently mnemoniced (eg "autorenew") to adjust whole thing, "autorenew" or likewise get latest version from preferred order hg,git,svn,cvs. now don't now how to make git-clone bit in the dark still super stable.
