[postgis-devel] postgis 2.2.0 tag?

Hello,

I noticed that when 2.2.0 was released, there was a source tarball created
and a branch was made, but I couldn't find a tag that indicates which
specific commit is tied to the release itself.  My current process it to
clone the code with git, checkout the latest tag available, and then build
with it.  As of now, there are no 2.2.x tags in the repository.

This may seem nitpicky, but the branch will live on for the life of 2.2,
whereas a tag in my mind is a marker indicative of a specific
regression-tested snapshot in time.  I want to make sure that I'm utilizing
the release version that was published on October 7, /2015.  I did try
chasing down the version by looking at the source tarball, but its
corresponding change-log seems to indicate that it may have been generated
before the 2.2.0 branch was created.  So, I thought I would ask the
question to the experts.

I don't want to be a bother; I was just curious if this was something that
could easily be remedied.

On a side note, is there a 2.2.1 planned in the near future, or is that a
ways off?

Thank you for your time.

Best regards,
  -John
