Peter Donald updated BUILDR-703:
--------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 1.5
> release: allow THIS_VERSION to be defined in another file
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: BUILDR-703
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-703
> Project: Buildr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core features
> Reporter: Willem Verstraeten
> Fix For: 1.5
>
>
> The release task updates the field 'THIS_VERSION' in the {{buildfile}}
> itself.
> If you have a project that maintains multiple branches of a product (say 1.x
> and 2.x), this leads to a non-trivial merge conflicts in an essential file.
> It would be convenient if the version could be specified in a separate file.
> That way we can revert the file on each merge with less chance of introducing
> an error.
