Hi Philipp,

the tags seem to have disappeared from the Github repo...

padelt commented

I have no idea where they went!? Any ideas? TBH, I don't even remember what was in there.

If you've got a local copy of the repo with tags, you might be able to recreate them by inspecting the commit ID of each... (or easier, git push --tags)

If you don't have a local copy of the tags, then you'll just have to infer which commits were tagged (probably ones that incremented the version in setup.py?)

I'll have a look at home but it seems I don't have any checked out version including tags.
If nobody has a list of commits associated with the tags, maybe we'll just start tagging them now.
Sometimes I miss Mercurial, where shooting your foot was/is considerably harder.

Hey guys,

So I just found some free time and went to package up a new release and saw this.

Are we safe to just tag the existing codebase 1.4 and bundle a release? Would you prefer I jump to 1.5 and we retrofit 1.4 later if we can divine the tags?

FWIW in my projects I've taken to keeping a CHANGELOG as per these guidelines. It makes it very easy to see at a glance what has been added with each version (and which changes are outstanding waiting to be released in a new version).

@padelt if you like I could add a CHANGELOG to the project or I could leave it to you. Just let me know.

After tagging, we could always update CHANGELOG.md to record the SHA1 where the tag was made.

I thought about that and was unsure where that information should go. Is there a definitive answer? Or at least opinions?
Feel free to reopen if needed.
