[Libreoffice] Git tags: why not "3.3.4-rc2" instead of "3.3.4.2"

Hello,

I was wondering why the git tags are named `3.3.4.2` for 3.3.4-rc2 
instead of the more natural `3.3.4-rc2` or the more common `v3.3.4-rc2`. 
I am used to see 3.3.4.2 as the second bugfix release for 3.3.4, or, in 
more mathematical terms, 3.3.4.2 > 3.3.4 = 3.3.4.0. I hope 3.5-rc1 will 
not be tagged as 3.5.1.

Is this behaviour a leftover of the SVN workflow? Could it be changed?

Best,
