In future if this happens, I believe the recommended way is to upload a version called 2.13+actually2.12 or something like that.
The justification is that epochs carry a long-term ugliness in the version, so if the mistake is temporary and will get fixed by a soon-to-be-uploaded newer version then it's better to just hack the version.
