Hi Mickael,
Hi,
So just to make sure I understand your setup correctly: You check
your master build for “wrong” versions, with the maintenance
stream being the baseline. Correct?
Yes.
If yes, assume the following scenario: master and maintenance stream
produce artifacts with the same version and content, so the master
version is not “wrong”. Now the maintenance version is
incremented. However this entails that building the same sources in
master would now fail. This doesn’t seem desired, or is it?
In the case of JBoss Tools, I believe we prefer it to fail in that
case, as we don't want master to have "older" things than maintenance.
If something is changed on maintenance, we assume master must have it
as well.
Do you have examples of projects that would want their master to be
"older" than maintenance?
To be clear the builds wont start failing before releases have been
published to the baseline urls.
Thus I would argue that if you release a version on maintenance branch
with a higher version then your master should not be building new bits
with older versions in the normal case.
Of course if you are debugging some issue in a older tag/branch then you
would like the build to succeed but that would then be case where you
manually override the check.
If that is annoying then one could just add this check in the CI build
to get it to fail if you've forgotten to bump the version.
