rindolf | jawnsy: no version numbers of what? |
jawnsy | rindolf: version numbers for your documentation stuff. like a way to download the web site as a tarball, with a version number (maybe even a date) |
rindolf | jawnsy: ah. |
rindolf | jawnsy: I'm using Subversion for it. |
rindolf | jawnsy: I can start making releases with version numbers. |
tag | subversion revision numbers are not the same as version numbers, and typically shouldn't be used to source version numbers. |
tag | unless you don't care that the version number is totally meaningless. In that case, you might as well use a date so it can at least mean *something* |
buu | tag: Let's use UUIDS! |
tag | oh, like git? |
tag | yeah it's the same |
buu | "Dude, version 91239213912ASD!@#ASDASDADS!@#!@!" is totally superior to "124912312ASD1242412FF232" |
tag | They have no real value, other than the ability to uniquely identify a something |
rindolf | buu: LOL. |
Botje | well, git's sha1 sum at least identify a point in time |
rindolf | tag: I won't use subversion rev numbers. |
tag | without telling you jack shit about what that something is |
buu | To be fair, svn numbers increase.. |
rindolf | buu: yes, but an earlier branch can have a later rev number. |
rindolf | buu: I think Config-IniFiles used CVS revisions as version numbers. |
buu | rindolf: Uh oh |
buu | rindolf: I feel the world around me collapsing. |
