Imagine you have a package in FC-4 and devel and you want to keep the spec files in sync as much as possible, but there are small differences nevertheless. For example there is an excludearch in devel because the computer segfaults for this arch in devel. In the beginning the release is the same for both branches. Then for example you try a build without the excludearch in devel. It is possible to bump the release, but extending the release such that the release numbers are kept in sync makes sense, such that, later the release may be bumped on all branches when there is a non trivial change. If it happens that it isn't possible to keep the differences between branches minimal, then it may make sense to lose the synchro between specs for the branches, and then bump release independently but when it is possible to keep them in sync, it may makes sense. > > It also allows to keep spec file in sync for the different branches. > branches! -- Devel isn't a branch. ?
