[bug] NPM releases are deprecated (apart from release candidate versions)

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

SortableJS versions up to 1.12.0 have until recently been distributed via NPM. Currently release versions of SortableJS on NPM are indicated as ‘deprecated’ and are unavailable for download.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Go to https://www.npmjs.com/package/sortablejs
View the package version history
Observe that only releases containing -rc in the version tag (release candidates) are listed
To see the previously-available (now deprecated) versions, check the ‘show deprecated versions’ checkbox

Expected behavior

Previously-released versions of SortableJS should be available via NPM, or a descriptive reason explaining the deprecation of the package versions should be provided on the NPM package page and GitHub repository.

Yes, this was a mistake due to a problem with npm, I have contacted npm support to fix this and I’m waiting to hear back from them

@jayaddison It contained a lot of structural changes to the codebase that we deemed unnecessary, as well as some build issues. Since this was the majority of the updates it was just rolled back to an earlier version. Any bug fixes that there were in 1.12.0 I will merge into the current version and release as a new version.
