Can you please make a new release, last release was over 5 years ago and no tarball release since but more themes have been added.

I think the last release was when [Github cancelled uploads](https://github.blog/2012-12-12-goodbye-uploads/).

Geany-themes is packaged in the [Win32](https://download.geany.org/geany-1.35_setup.exe) and [MacOS](https://github.com/geany/geany-osx) releases and I think most Linux distros are packaging it for their repos.

If you just want an archive, in Github you can [download the zip file](https://github.com/geany/geany-themes/archive/master.zip).

Master's hash changes so is no good for rebuilds, guess we'll have to switch a commit.

@Justinzobel can you elaborate a bit, maybe I misunderstood what you're asking?

Releases are needed for distros to systematically package geany-themes for their users. They make it easier to package the software at a specific moment in time that the developer has declared a stable and worthwhile release.

What do you need of a release? Just a Git tag, or an actual generated tarball/archive?

Can you key off of [the index file](https://github.com/geany/geany-themes/blob/master/index/index.json)? Whenever what most people would call a "release" is made, this JSON file is updated. It's used on [Geany's website](https://geany.org/download/themes/) to keep up-to-date.

Alternatively I can try and make a Git tag for each "release" then you can go from that as a release version, instead of having to update on each individual commit.

Let me know, I can adjust things a bit if needed.
