Release/tag request #123

Hey. I am about to package mergerfs-tools into gentoo and noticed the repository has no releases or even tags there. For now I can make snapshot using date of top most commit as the version string, but would you consider to putting any version it it?

This has always been a super casual project intended as a base for people to build things for their own needs. I could create releases but they really wouldn't mean much.

It is all right if there will be no tag, packaged it as mergerfs-tools-0_p20210502.

I think there's a fair amount of room for helper scripts around mergerfs. If ever you'd get a significant contribution to scripts around mergerfs would you consider to either turn mergerfs-tools into normal project, or bundling them alongside mergerfs itself?

Sure, depending on what exactly it was. Most of these are intentionally bespoke. If something is seriously common it should be part of mergerfs proper.
