Releases and tags missing

Closed this issue · 6 comments

(Ref: #1207 (comment))

Looks like there have been no releases since v3.4.2, and no git tags since v3.3.2, even though master seems to have commits naming versions up to v3.6 currently:

Was wondering when there is likely to be releases for these intermediary versions, and if the tags could also be updated to match.

Edit: It seems this also doesn't match what is live in the chrome store, as that version appears to be v6.0:

I don't think adding git tags for NPM releases is that important, personally.

It makes it nice when you're trying to track down if a commit has landed in a certain version, as the most immediate usecase. And if it's easily automatable/added to the 'deploy' scripts, then you kind of get it 'for free'.

This seems to have been raised previously, and according to the outcome of that issue, was accepted as 'we should do that':

Tags for releases from now on should show up.

There's no "deploy script" unfortunately. It's a pretty manual process.

I can try to remember to do this, but I make no promises.

Would it be worth wrapping up the process into a deploy/'release' script of sorts, save having to remember?

I still don't think tags are very valuable in this repo, so in my opinion– no.

Closing this for now.

I'll try to remember to git tag when I create releases.
