Andrea I'm right there with you. I asked about versioning when the previous 
release occurred and led to a bug in our production environment. My advice 
would be to follow this forum so that when the Vis team announces the release 
candidate (about a couple of weeks prior to the release) you can test your 
environment and report any issues before they cutover. Go here to see how to 
test with the candidate release 
https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/release_notes#ReleaseProcess

Hopefully that can help in the future until they have versioning in place.
