Hey Rob,

ah I see... thanks for the fast handling of my feedback :P

I would recommend taking a look at a way to track upstreams for release
tarballs/tags beyond that...

there is a big amount of tools to achieve this (trying not to turn this
thread into an advertisement-repy-war so not mentioning any).

For projects hosted on git i find it handy to have some of them
observing 'git ls-remote --tags https://someurl.foo/project.git'.


I recommand having something in place to track maintained packages.

cheers,
Levente
