Tag 4.2 has a ludicrousdb.php file that says "Version: 5.0.0"
We are looking to upgrade to the latest version of ludicrousdb and I was hoping someone could clarify something.
When you look at the code in the 4.2 tag, ludicrousdb.php says it is version 5.0. Should the tag and the version in this file match?

Thanks!
That's really annoying. I think this is because the 4.2 tag was being deleted by the mirror, and we had to force the tag, and it just got missed.
It's embarrassing, but won't break anything. When we release 5.1.0, it'll still be OK.
@JJJ is it not also related to the emojified release name or the date on 4.2.0 GH release being newer than 5.0.0?
I think you can fix the emojis/force update the 5.0.0 tag/release date to have it shown as latest, without any ill effects (Packagist shows 5.0.0 as latest correctly already)
If someone's trying to check what version is installed on a non-Composerified site, can compare the 5.0.0 and 4.2.0 tags here: https://github.com/stuttter/ludicrousdb/compare/5.0.0...4.2.0
and easy check is the ./ludicrousdb.php file, line 44, should have the // phpcs:ignore comment, as per current master branch: https://github.com/stuttter/ludicrousdb/blob/dc3167b9696e9adbb3834a39453c2cc5575c65c4/ludicrousdb.php#L44
So really 4.2.0 is newer in features over 5.0.0?
No. 5.0.0 is newer. 5.1.0 is latest.
The 4.2.0 tag was pushed in error by a mirror I'd setup and was half broken. 😔
