Sean, thanks for the tutorial. I think we might do better to try
keeping the FAQ up-to-date and make the current INSTALL & friends
better, rather than add Yet Another Document. (Of course there will
be general-purpose documentation soon, suitable for newbies and
others.)
If you post your tutorial somewhere & will be keeping it up to date,
though, then the Subversion home site should link to it. Let us know.
An accuracy point, by the way: svn does not support offline tagging
and branching.

Oh, I see what you mean.
Right. The "tag" is not visible to anyone else, but it will be when
you commit, and that's what Sean must have meant by "offline"
Sorry for misunderstanding, Sean; I think you were clear, I just
didn't see all the implications.

Sure we do:
[ done while connected ]
$ svn co http://host/path/trunk ./trunk
$ svn co -n http://host/path/tags ./tags
[ some time later... ]
$ svn cp trunk tags/1.1rc3
That seems pretty offline to me :-)
Cheers,
