For software packager it is extremely difficult to pack software that has no release tags.
I results in different versions from different packages, with unreadable and hard to maintain git sha sums mapped to some date, to be sortable and therefore updateable.
both 'tag' some date to some sha sum, of course different
and Linux packagers have the same problem, they either will ship a outdated and old package or have to do the same
Please make the life for those people that try to make software easy accessible by regularly create release tags for your software.
Thanks!
