Please release a v2.17-1 instead of modifying release files in the future #98

Hi!

I'm working on source reproducibility for NixOS and I've noticed that the files for 2.17 got swapped:

22 June 2024 - Release files have been updated with the mingw version of avrdude v7.3.

This breaks downstream builds that hash their inputs like ours do. Granted, this is normally papered over by our inputs cache, but it's preferable if it's just done by changing the version, conventionally by adding -1 to signify it is more or less exactly the same software with the same source but with a slight modification (often because the tarball got messed up and redone).

In the future when doing similar updates, can you add a -1 instead? Thanks!!
