Heikki's great summary helps (I think the one piece I was screwing up is 
covered there), and Pavan's comments adds some useful bits.  The still 
missing part is how to make a real branch to work in, which is much easier 
to work with once you figure out how to do it than either using just diffs 
or tagging.

I agree the wiki is the right place to hash this out; when that's 
converged to something useful, then take a snapshot and convert for the 
official manual.  I'll work on it.
