I'll sort that out when I get a moment. I hope I can change a field label in 
ExpressionEngine (which is what the subversion label is) without messing things 
up too much!

For that you need to know how to pull a tag using git. If you look on the 
GitHub page, and look at the 'Switch Tags' dropdown menu, you'll see the tag 
releases available.

I guess we assume that if you know what you're doing with git, you'll know how 
to get the releases. Otherwise, it's probably easier just to download the zip.
