Okay, I created a stable branch (currently) pointing at the merge commit for the commit you referenced:
https://github.com/muammar/mkchromecast/tree/stable

I am indeed. -git suffixed packages are development versions of those without the suffix, so it's expected that there will be some instability. After a quick search however, it does appear the stable package no longer exists, so I could create that.

Is there a commit that could be tagged that's more recent than 0.3.8.1 that was released over 6 years ago, but before your recent refactoring.

I don't think there's a specific conclusive answer, but here are some datapoints:

• Debian (unstable through stable) and Ubuntu ship a package based off db2964a1 Updated qt and clean targets on Makefile.; see https://salsa.debian.org/debian/mkchromecast.git . I figure this will be the most-tested version.
• It looks like you have a PR that was merged after that commit, c046ba2f Merge pull request #376 from benjamb/benbrown/list-regex. I presume you would want this in the stable aur package
• There were some (automated?) minimal-version bumps after your PR, leading up to the commit 10b91bd4 Merge pull request #409 from muammar/dependabot/npm_and_yarn/nodejs/qs-and-express-6.11.0 from Dec 2022.

I'm open to other ideas and suggestions, but I would be comfortable with creating a stable branch that points to any of those three commits. That said, I don't think I have enough of a grasp on how the project metadata works (or how correct it is) just yet to actually create a new release.

@andrewshadura @bgermann FYI, re: the Debian mkchromecast package

Something with at least a35a5d9 would be preferable, since it includes various patches (not just my own) to make it pipewire friendly.
