This discussion was created from the release v2.1.2.

Hi @agoose77,

Two small corrections:

1. This release needed to be named "Version 2.1.2", not "v2.1.2" (that's the git tag name). It did deploy successfully, which I didn't think would happen, but maybe that only depends on the git tag name, not the release name. I fixed the title, both in the release and the discussion, so there's no action item.
2. It's missing header-only.zip. I don't know how it lost that—maybe it depends on release name? I didn't fix this (I don't know how), so it should probably be done manually. Is it usually done manually? If so, it has to become automatic so that it's not forgotten...

[agoose77]

Thanks! I did rename the release, I wonder what happened. I did, however, forget the headers. We need to extend our CI for this.
