Would you please tag master? about lodepng HOT 3 CLOSED

Hello,

Some commits might be a security fix. Others might indeed break API for some new feature. Normally "head" should be the best version. Which commits would you like to be tagged after future commits? Is depending on a certain commit possible instead without a tag?

Thanks.

Hi Lode,

We can depend on a specific commits, that would work very well. But tagging would allow you to give us a heads up about the semantic value of changes; mostly, "this change will probably not break your code" vs "this change will almost definitely break your code". Are you familiar with Semantic Versioning?

Thanks again for this library, it really is great.

Thanks a lot for pointing out semantic versioning. I will consider it, but currently I'll keep the current style due to time and other constraints preventing me from adopting a new paradigm at this time :). Hopefully depending on a commit will work for now, though to be honest an API-breaking commit will be really really rare (less than once a year), usually it's a bugfix or performance improvement instead (currently less than once a month, after all it's mostly "done") so the head version might be the safest.
