With the branch approach, the branch can be deleted, and if I'm not mistaken, the release tag would then reference a non-existent commit of the branch.
What happens with the commit if the branch is deleted but the superproject still references it is an interesting git question. :-)
Ideally, the feature will be fixed for the next release in a normal manner, so the question will be moot in addition to interesting, but in practice, it would probably still hold some relevance. :-)
Well, you should be able to check out any Boost release from git (starting from the first git-based release), at least that's expected from a VCS, don't you agree?
