Inconsistent manifests on git release tag vs release notes

[badgerspoke]

Apologies if this is nit picking, but your release tag v0.18.0 manifests do not match intent/release notes, and have been changed on master to match but the tag has incorrect file data. For example:

1. Tag value is incorrect on the v0.18.0 branch:
   https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/external-dns/blob/v0.18.0/kustomize/kustomization.yaml
   vs
   https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/external-dns/blob/master/kustomize/kustomization.yaml

2. Required RBAC change is present on master but not on the v0.18.0 branch:
   https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/external-dns/blob/v0.18.0/kustomize/external-dns-clusterrole.yaml
   vs
   https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/external-dns/blob/master/kustomize/external-dns-clusterrole.yaml

How can I best stay up to date if the git tag references incorrect/stale configuration that differs from the release?
