The commit that marks your 0.2 version can be tagged. This makes it 
easier for anyone to checkout the version without missing or additional 
changes.

For example:

1. create a tag
$ git tag lsgvt-0.2 f92699c645
(f92699c645 is the last commit you made in github)

2. push the tag to the remote origin (like your github repo)
$ git push --tags origin

3. checkout the 0.2 release on a different machine
$ git clone git://github.com/fvzwieten/lsgvt.git
$ cd lsgvt
$ git checkout lsgvt-0.2


And 'git tag --help' shows some more options and details.

Cheers,
Niels
