Please issue a tag when a new version is made public #4086

Hello, I am currently maintainer of the Debian package for Fritzing. I missed some versions, because the "uscan" system which can warn me about new versions was unable to detect recent versions, like 1.0.1.

Current Behaviour

The last tag found by "uscan" system is 0.9.6

If a git tag like 1.0.1, or v1.0.1, or V1.0.1 exists, "uscan" will automatically warn me about version 1.0.1 (uscan is based on regular expression matching and gets its information from https://api.github.com/repos/fritzing/fritzing-app/tags)

Wished Behaviour

So please, keep somewhere a reminder for the next version change: when a new version is made public, please create a Git Tag accordingly

Thank you in advance!

Void Linux has a strict policy about using versions - no arbitrary commits or betas. It seems for Arch the AUR just picked a commit that was close enough, but Void doesn't see that as acceptable. It would be greatly appreciated if versions were tagged - the same goes for fritzing-parts!

I agree with previous comment. Would it be possible to add a new tag please?
