Description

I'm using these definitions to generate a C# wrapper for all its defined API. The current master version does not work with the current Chrome stable version 87 because the PDL requires a member that isn't provided by the actual browser. That member was added on 4 Nov but the browser was released on 19 Nov. So it seems like the browser doesn't use the latest PDL when released. A really old version from 2 years ago works for me (and has worked the last 2 years), but I cannot tell its version, it was still fetched from another GitHub repository that no longer contains these PDL files. Google search brought me here instead.

I guess I'm better off using the stable version 1.3 that is described in the referenced protocol viewer. But I cannot find any version specifications in this repository. There are random branch names and version tags but nothing that looks like Chrome versions or 1.2 or 1.3. All I see is 6-digit numbers starting with 7 or 8 that have no meaning to me.

Where can I find the right commit in this repository?
