Hum ok so there's more to it than the commit message. I'll come by with
something clearer for a v4. Thank you for the clarification.

Indeed.

OK, I treat fixes tags as:
from the introduction (or discovery) of a regression (or bug), the
"Fixes" commit will patch the commit that introduced the regression.
Hence why I tagged the commit from which the platform was not acting
correctly anymore. If that's fine for you it's fine for me as well :)

Will do.
