Since cairo also uses git, we do the "bump; tag; bump" sequence as local commits that are pushed atomically. So the released version is available in the history and can be checked out by its tag. But at no point will someone that is tracking the head of development get a build that results in an even-numbered version. I do regard the approach as quite successful for cairo, for what that's worth. -Carl
