Perhaps mirror the branches organization scheme?

                        tags/
                           ...
                           release/
                              ...
                              1_34_1
                              1_35_0
                           libs/
                              ...
                              python/
                                 rev_2
                                 ...
                              serialization/
                                 before_code_refactoring
                              ...

                        branches/
                           release
                           libs/
                              ...
                              python
                              serialization
                              ...
