I do not think so. I just wanted to find 2.7 version.

There is an opportunity to use multiple tarballs [1], but I never used
this option. You should decide, how will it better for you to maintain
the package.

But for the first upload I would use just a plain tarball of 2.8p1 version,
which is available on the website and d/watch can easily download it.
But, again, you should decide it yourself.
