They're kinda hard to deduce. RELENG_2_1_0 This is the 2.1 branch of the tree. It is stable to the point of being stagnant and neglected. Some easy fixes are still made to this branch, but many bug and security fixes haven't been applied here. RELENG_2_2 This is the 2.2 branch of the tree. This has been declared to be the stable branch of the tree right now. It lags current in some areas, but has been better maintained than the 2.1 branch was at this point in its life. It is still active, but stable enough to run on a day to day basis. Other less common tags include: CSRG First import of all sources bsd_44_lite First import of all sources, baseline for everything. RELENG_x_y_z_RELEASE The tag (not branch) of the x.y.z release. RELENG_x_y_BP Branch point for the file to the x.y release branch. I don't quite understand why this was done, but I suspect it has something to do with being able to do -r RELENG_x_y_BP -r HEAD to see what has changed since things have branched (either with cvs log or cvs diff). Most of these can be found, should one forget, by doing a cvs log on /usr/src/Makefile (pipe it through more, you'll be happier).
