Hi, I'm experimenting with Exemplars for Gauge metrics in client_java (background: at the dev summit on 10 November 2022 <https://docs.google.com/document/d/11LC3wJcVk00l8w5P3oLQ-m3Y37iom6INAMEu2ZAGIIE/edit> we decided that "Prometheus will ingest Exemplars on all time series").
For comparison: A counter MUST have the following methods <https://prometheus.io/docs/instrumenting/writing_clientlibs/#counter>: - inc(): Increment the counter by 1 - inc(double v): Increment the counter by the given amount. MUST check that v >= 0. Exemplars will contain the increment, i.e. if inc() is called the Exemplar will have the value 1.0, if inc(v) is called the Exemplar will have the value v. Now, A gauge MUST have the following methods <https://prometheus.io/docs/instrumenting/writing_clientlibs/#gauge>: - inc(): Increment the gauge by 1 - inc(double v): Increment the gauge by the given amount - dec(): Decrement the gauge by 1 - dec(double v): Decrement the gauge by the given amount - set(double v): Set the gauge to the given value Which value should we choose for Gauge Exemplars?
