The source tree is tagged. LuCI is tagged. But "packages" apparently isn't.
this thing of having packages feed tagged comes back from time to time.

in my opinion is that the developers community of OpenWRT has no
interest in keeping a tagged packages tree.

IMHO they should! I completely agree with Daniel!

One of the prime reasons for using a source control system should be to make past releases reproducible but also to make changes controllable.

I think it is evil to check out a stable and tested branch like backfire and then getting different bleeding edge app versions every time you checkout a new working dir. This means that it is in practice impossible to create two working directories at different moments and have them build the same binaries, as you sometimes want to go back in time and search for regressions.

Please add at least a revision number in feeds.conf for anything else than bleeding edge! Time to grow up!

Daniel +1
