You see, I did not know that. That is important information :-)

So your "Almost" is actually a "not really"!

I will update the new docs accordingly.

How about this for a suggestion? We currently tag the first in the "4.4"
series as "bugzilla-4.4". Would it be better to tag it as
"bugzilla-4.4.0", either instead or additionally? That would make
instructions on how to pull a particular version easier to write,
because you wouldn't need to special-case the first release.

You see, it's not immediately clear to an observer if
git checkout bugzilla-4.4
is pulling the latest 4.4 or the original release of 4.4.

I've been reading O'Reillys "Version control with Git" which is also
very good.
