No, there are three tags:

             before-merge-foo
             |  after-merge-foo
             |  |
branch 1 ---*--*----
               /
              /
branch 2 ---*-------
             |
             merge-point-foo

That's why I was a bit confused.  I thought most people did something 
similar.
