Risk Olson introduces a new feature that uses annotated tags to describe project downloads, enhancing clarity by providing detailed descriptions, as exemplified by Ruby on Rails' v2.3.5 release notes, which include improvements and bug fixes. This approach offers more informative insights compared to the traditional use of commit messages, which often lack context. Additionally, Olson notes a change in the output filename structure for tag or branch downloads to include the tag in the name, modifying the format to {user}-{repo}-{tag}-{n}-g{sha}.tar.gz, a convention derived from the 'git describe' command, thereby improving the traceability and organization of files.
