Please change tagging convention

[kloczek]

tar ball from https://github.com/alonbl/gnupg-pkcs11-scd//archive/gnupg-pkcs11-scd-0.9.2.tar.gz has as base directory gnupg-pkcs11-scd-gnupg-pkcs11-scd-0.9.2/. Please use just as tag next time.

[alonbl]

I am unsure what you refer to, release[1] tarball is ok, please learn how to use github release artifacts.

[1] https://github.com/alonbl/gnupg-pkcs11-scd/releases/download/gnupg-pkcs11-scd-0.9.2/gnupg-pkcs11-scd-0.9.2.tar.bz2

[kloczek]

Conten is OK. Issue is that base directory inside of the tar ball generated pit of tag (not release) contains two times rpeated name of the package.

This because you are adding name of the repository to the tag.

[alonbl]

I will set my tags in any method I like, tags are internal to source code management.

github creates the source tarball per tag automatically based on whatever algorithm it likes, there is no way to block this automatic creation of tarballs, you should not use this tarball.

In each release there is a formal source tarball for you to use created by make dist, you should use this tarball, once again, the directory name has nothing to do with tag name, it is the autotools convention of package name and version.

Alternatively, if you want to access tags, clone the repository and use it directly.

[kloczek]

Thank you very much for your understanding that some people are watching in tags changes to run automaric packakign process. With YourWay(tm) of tagging you are no longer now adds some overhead to that kind of processes.

One more time .. thank you very much.

[alonbl]

It is not my way, many projects behaves the same. Instead of monitoring this autogen tarball, you can monitor the formal source tarball as other projects are doing.

As I wrote before again .. thank you very much for your understanding.

PS. I woud accept your reply if you would have some exect arguments to stick to that pattern however your only argument is "I'm using it because I want it".

[alonbl]

I truly don’t get it. Assuming you are interested in a new release why are you trying to couple with github feature? Let’s assume that the project was hosted in other hosting service and release source tarballs were published into webdav mirror, what would you argue then? That all projects must be hosted at github so you can use your way of detection? You are trying to couple distribution concepts with source concepts and hosting technology (github) with consumption.
