When it's possible we do it, when time permit. Speaking with my distro hat on, I argue that when we have to do that ourselves the process is made more complicated because most digikam-related repos don't have tags for releases (or betas): $ cd libkgeomap/ $ git tag ... and no tags anywhere. This makes hard to tell at which point in time (save looking through the commit history) commits appeared relative to the last release (or beta). It would make the packagers' job a little easier (and also, it would help wrt repo organization, IMO), if each release / beta release would also be tagged in git. There are already scripts for it, see the ones used to release Applications, the Frameworks scripts, or the ones used by the Plasma team. -- Luca Beltrame - KDE Forums team KDE Science supporter GPG key ID: 6E1A4E79
