 (9b8fe357886ce56c5465641d15842492b10f72ec) is optional (it just cleans up
 a few tags, etc. within the versions.alpha and versions.nightly files).
 Note that we did not update versions.beta because it seems fairly out of
 date; I guess someone will just copy versions.alpha over versions.beta
 when the time is right.

 Yes, and update the missing things in versions.alpha (like bump to latest
 tor alpha, HTTPS-E version etc.). So, no worries here.

 > The second commit (78a5e73d4e32334cca387be13b631687deeb0ec5) has the
 changes necessary for this bug.  We changed the checkout_mingw() function
 within fetch-inputs.sh to support pulling via a tag and we updated the
 component versions.  Again, we did not touch versions.beta.

 Why is the change in fetch-inputs.sh necessary? I mean what does speak
 against just bumping `MINGW_VER` to 6638 (which v3.1.0 is pointing to
 IIRC)? I don't see the benefit of having the additional complexity as tags
 in subversion can't be signed anyway (AFAICT).
