An ALAVETELI_VERSION constant has been added in config/environment.rb. When loading themes, `rails-post-deploy` now looks for a tag on the theme repository in the form 'use-with-alaveteli-0.6.5' that matches the ALAVETELI_VERSION being deployed - if it finds such a tag, the theme will be checked out from that tag, rather than from the HEAD of the theme repository.
