Dunno, but it must be me how made this crew-up, sorry. I cannot say
exactly how it happened, but it was non-intentional. Probably pushed one
patch version, then later amended it, and pushed it with --force. This
should never be done, sorry.

OK, I can tag them at the beginning of the next year. I'm having
holydays in 10 min.

We usually use the master branch. And there is simply no one who cares
about tags. But I can do this. You'll get a new tag when I come back
from holydays, unless someone else tag it earlier.
