I’m afraid most, if not all, of the projects listed use pride versioning, also.
This is hilarious
I really had to fight for versioning. Everyone was just patch version here. Breaking changes in the API, new features, completely overhauled design? Well, it’s 0.6.24 instead of 0.6.23 now.
But gladly we’re moving away from version numbers alltogether. Starting next year it will be 2025.1.0 with monthly releases
The fairly mature internal component we’re working on is
v0.0.134
.For an internal project that’s fine, and under semantic versioning you can basically break anything you like before v1.0.0 so it’s probably valid
A shameful display!
I once had someone open an issue in my side project repo who asked about a major release bump and whether it meant there were any breaking changes or major changes and I was just like idk I just thought I added enough and felt like bumping the major version ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I think is the logic used for Linux kernel versioning so you’re in good company.
But everyone should really follow semantic versioning. It makes life so much easier.
either have meaning to the number and do semantic versioning, or don’t bother and simply use dates or maybe simple increments
Date based version numbers is just lazy. There’s nothing more significant about a release in two weeks (2025.x.y) than today (2024.x.y).
At least with pride versioning there’s some logic to it.
This is is basically just true
I wish it was true here. Major releases are always the most shameful ones because so much is always left to “we can fix that later”
Hey as long as it ships it can always be an RMA. If there’s a problem the customer will let us know™
So pride is a synonym for semantic. Got it.
That reminds me, maybe I should re-watch Doug Hickey’s full-throated attack on versioning & breaking changes. Spec-ulation Keynote
a classic
Thought it’s 2.7.1828182845904523536 for a sec
