It is recommended that this repository, similar to the primary repository, uses tags for specific releases to prevent compatibility issues due to configuration feature changes.

Mmmm I'm not against it, but that would mean that nushell org should give support to previous versions. Personally I would rather have the latest nu version and a bad/broken script, than preventing the nushell update because the script is broken in the current version. Can I ask you for a clarification of the problem you are trying to solve? Maybe I don't understand it fully 😊

Thank you for your response. Each Nushell upgrade introduces API changes that may result in incompatibilities, leading to a nu_script error on startup. Creating tags for specific versions would facilitate better management of version compatibility between Nushell and nu_script. This is my interpretation

Yes, but when you release a new version, wouldn't you re-tag or recheck if the scripts are runnable in the latest version? I think it's a lot of work and it would be easier to update the scripts to the latest available nushell

Indeed, it's a lot of work. If someone wants to volunteer to do this we could add tags.
