I understand the frustration. Those plugins clearly lack proper tags. As far as i can tell we release them from tag offsets. For example spellcheck current release is 2.0.0.26. I alerted the release team for those plugins since it should not be a big deal to properly tag releases.

That being said, it is possible right now to get the correct git commit from the tag offset using the base tag. As far as Debian versioning is concerned, that would be a version using a git short hash as part of version.
