Description

migrated from github:
https://github.com/Whonix/Whonix/issues/357

This is a follow up task that results out of:
[[ https://github.com/Whonix/Whonix/issues/276 | “better git tag names that reflect stable, testers-only, developers-only” ]]

Currently when one runs in Whonix/Whonix source folder.

git tag

They’ll get this.

[...]
0.5.6
0.6.0
0.6.1
10.0.0.0.1-developers-only
10.0.0.0.2-developers-only
10.0.0.0.3-developers-only
10.0.0.0.4-developers-only
10.0.0.0.5-developers-only
10.0.0.0.6-developers-only
6
6.1
6.2
[...]
8.6.6.9
9
9.1
9.2
9.3

Tags names 10.0.0.0.6-developers-only and similar follow the schema that was implemented in [[ https://github.com/Whonix/Whonix/issues/276 | #276 ]].

What’s the issue? That -developers-only tag ends up somewhere in the middle. Someone who just runs git tag might easily miss it and think 9.3 is the latest one.

Any idea what we could do about this?
