Releasing older version needs special tagging mechanism

[gurkanindibay]

When creating releases Github put the latest tag according to the date of the tag. If the tagged version is an older one, older release is being labelled as latest which may cause confusion among users. I haven't tried but when tagging, giving date is possible according to the stackoverflow post below. We should update our checklists including this policy

For the sake of completeness, here is the suggested solution on the SO link.

Set the commit date to an earlier time before creating the tag.
GIT_COMMITTER_DATE="2013-12-31 00:00" git tag -a v0.1.0.1 b217332279 -m "release 0.1.0.1"
