I would tend to use tzcode/AAAAb and tzdata/CCCCd for the tags.
What is the advantage of using a slash in the tags? Sorry, I don't know the details of tagging in git; I tend to not use tags myself.
Tags are just freeform descriptors, and have no real special meaning.
This would also suggest that we have just one set of tags in the repository, tz/2012e or tz2012e say, depending on whether that slash is helpful.
The / has no advantage in this case. It would say that it would just make it more annoying to deal with f.e. in case you want to use a directory for each tag (with / being the directory separator). cheers, Derick
