tag=RELENG_7_0_0_RELEASE gives you the same source code as is used to build the release CDs. This is the release branch.
tag=RELENG_7_0 gives you the source code for the release + any security fixes that have been made since the release. This is the security branch. Each commit to this branch increases the patch level by one. Hence the -pX after the version number. This is the tag you should be using.
tag=RELENG_7 gives you the latest source code from the 7-STABLE development branch. This branch is always changing, and will eventually become 7.1, and then 7.2, etc.
