Hi list,

I have the following situation. I have a package whose version-release in
f17/16 is 0.1.14-2, but in f18/master branches it is 0.1.14-3 (because of a
f18 mass rebuild). Suppose I'm going to update the spec file, so in
f18/master branches the new version-release will be 0.1.14-4, and for f17/16
branches if I "git merge master", then the release will jump from 2 to 4. Is
this ok? Or should I keep working with different releases for different
branches and forget about "git merge master" in lower branches?

Thanks Jon for your quick answer.

In f18, you would git merge master.  In f17, git merge f18.  In f16,
git merge f17.  But jumping from 2 to 4 is fine, too.

This way of doing git merge from a previous branch to the actual one implies modifying the spec file in f18/master branches to change version from 3 to 4, and in f17/16 branches to change version from 2 to 3, right?

OTOH, if I choose to jump from 2 to 4 in f17/16 branches, I only need to edit spec file in master branch, bump the spec file to 4, and then only git merge master in the lower branches, right?

Germán.

All the best,
