Sample message

Incorrect Stable Tag. It's recommended not to use "Stable Tag: trunk". Your Stable Tag is meant to be the stable version of your plugin and it needs to be exactly the same with the Version in your main plugin file's header. Any mismatch can prevent users from downloading the correct plugin files from WordPress.org.
