Some release tags missing #61

Closed leif81 closed 6 years ago

I was looking to download an older release that I saw listed in the ChangeLog.txt, but several of the newer releases ( >0.10) aren't showing up in the GitHub releases view:

I don't think it'd be too hard for me to find what I need by reviewing the git history, but it'd be convenient to have them officially tagged.

I think all that needs to be done is go back and git tag them and they'll appear?

the latest version is 0.12.8...I'm not even sure how those other releases were tagged before LOL. Do you need previous versions for anything in particular?

leif81 commented 9 years ago

I don't think I will need an older version after all.

What had happened was I had gone to the GitHub releases section and saw what looked like the latest was 0.10 so I downloaded that. But then I was reading the ChangeLog.txt on master and realized there had been many releases since then. So instead I just downloaded the latest screen-capture-recorder.dll from master branch.

Perhaps if just the newest release, 0.12.8, is tagged that might help people like me grab the right one. I believe GitHub turns tags into releases sometimes for free which is probably why the older tags showed up there.

the releases and tags pages are identical...

leif81 commented 9 years ago

@Walkman100 Ya they are. I think you missed the point :)

What I was proposing is that @rdp go back and add git tags for the recent releases (0.10 -> 0.12.8). Then each of those would show up in both the releases and tags pages.

Yeah but I don't know how useful they'd be without the release executables...however I did start using github releases just now, thanks for the suggestion! b07dcce3cb6ad3b10a728f26177d49eba4620018
