I would further urge you to read:
 	http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base/projects/GUIDELINES.txt?view=markup
for an overview of the information used by the committers, and will
further add:

Even Stronger Caveat:

  o The "head" revision translates to something like "current" looking
    around in
 	   http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base/
    will show you that there are directories other than "head" from
    which branching is done.  Some perusal of the svn manual and poking
    around in the repository may help you track "current", but there
    isn't anything in place yet to let you track "stable", for instance.
