Re: [Tutor] Does Python and its standard libraries use semantic versioning?

The practice is of course fairly standard and certainly every major project I've ever worked on has done it but they were all compiled code and the x.y.z versioning only applied to the final-build binaries (which is what was released). Source files are usually maintained via the version control's numbering system and that does not respect the semantics of releases. So I'm not sure how you would control semantic versioning for a project that releases the source files (ie like Python projects do). One option would be to us a dual version control setup with one for file management and one for releases (I've seen that done before) but the potential for a file to bypass the release system is high. I'll be interested to see how others respond in general. And also for the specifics of how the Python project handles it. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

For those interested, there is git-flow (At https://github.com/nvie/gitflow) to aid in the implementing of this type of release workflow. -- boB ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
