We were discussing doing this off list, but didn't really come to a
conclusion. Although it can be done any time, as all the necessary
information is in the super project, so it's okay to push to master
before it's done - we don't tag the current master hash, we tag the
hash from the super project's boost-1.56.0 tag. Since we stopped
automatically updating the super project for a couple of weeks before
the release some modules might have updated their master branch
without it being included in the final release.
