Hum, I am not sure. In the SVN world, a version is really a revision
number that you get with 'svn checkout -r'.
I believe to get a specific branch or tag with SVN, one should instead
use:
LIBFOO2_VERSION = <some revision number>
LIBFOO2_SITE = http://svn.happyserver.net/theproject/branches/featureA
I do understand the wish to make things 'like other VCS', but I am not
entirely convinced it's a good idea. But I can probably be convinced
with good arguments :)
