Release tag prefixes
alerque opened this issue · comments
Was the switch to unprefixed semver tags with 2.6.11 (from v prefixed tags like v2.6.10) intentional or a slip? It usually doesn't matter a whole lot either way, but being consistent one way or the other does matter for downstream tooling...
Apparently it was accidental, because we're back to v prefixes with v2.6.12. Just so you know, a commit can be tagged more than once so you could add in the now missing sequence v2.6.11 tag without removing the off-pattern one many were forced to use.
OK, I corrected this. In the list of releases, Praat 6.2.11 now appears above 6.2.13, though.
It's okay. The default release page is chronological not semver sorting, but most distros that watch tags handle semver sorting just fine. Also the things like GitHub's latest release URL shortcut and flag work on semver, not time. After a release or two it won't even be noticed.
