2.2.0: change in tagging convention? 🤔

[kloczek]

Looks like with recent version has been changed tagging convention from 'gmpy2-<version_with_dots>togmpy2_<version_with_underscores>`.
Is it only mistake or from now it will be new tagging convention?
I'm asking because my automation relies on exact convention on processing new release email notifications.

It was a mistake. What is the best option? Create a new tag with dots and leave both tags, or create the new tag and delete the old one (trying to do a rename)?

[kloczek]

Best to be hones would be just <version.with.dots> or v<version.with.dots> because in autogenerated tar ball base directory is automatically generated out of <repo-name>-<git-tag> and if in tag is used on the begging v it is skipped (to make easier branching with <version.with.dots> on v<version.with.dots> to branch some version + some critical changes).

[casevh]

Is it okay to just create a tag 2.2.0 and leave the old tag as-is? There haven't been any code changes.

Perhaps, it might be a good idea to automate release process. In the diofant project I just do git push origin v1.2.3, that's all.

BTW, I'm not sure, that @casevh has required permissions for this repository...

I have tagged v2.2.1 and released on PyPi.

Probably, this can be closed?
