-------------------------------------
sultan opened a new pull request, #925:
URL: https://github.com/apache/maven/pull/925
This PR can be merged, If wanted to port (to 3.8.x) the fix for
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7559
intention is:
* 1.0.0.RC1 < 1.0.0-RC2
* ( edr, pfd, etc.) < final, ga, release
* 9.4.1.jre16 > 9.4.1.jre16-preview
following semver rules should be encouraged, natural ordering is used
without the need to hard code strings, except for hard coded qualifiers 'a',
'b', 'm', 'cr', 'snapshot', 'final', 'ga', 'release', '' and 'sp':
* alpha = a < beta = b < milestone = m < rc = cr < 'snapshot' < '' = 'final'
= 'ga' = 'release' < 'sp'
the documentation should discourage the usage of 'CR', 'final', 'ga',
'release' and 'SP' qualifiers.
Maven Central should begin to reject new artifact using CR and SP qualifiers.

Following this checklist to help us incorporate your
contribution quickly and easily:
- [x] Make sure there is a [JIRA
issue](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG) filed
for the change (usually before you start working on it). Trivial
changes like typos do not
require a JIRA issue. Your pull request should address just this
issue, without
pulling in other changes.
- [x] Each commit in the pull request should have a meaningful subject line
and body.
- [x] Format the pull request title like `[MNG-XXX] SUMMARY`, where you
replace `MNG-XXX`
and `SUMMARY` with the appropriate JIRA issue. Best practice is to
use the JIRA issue
title in the pull request title and in the first line of the commit
message.
- [x] Write a pull request description that is detailed enough to
understand what the pull request does, how, and why.
- [x] Run `mvn clean verify` to make sure basic checks pass. A more
thorough check will
be performed on your pull request automatically.
- [ ] You have run the [Core IT][core-its] successfully.

> ComparableVersion vs versions with custom qualifiers
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-7559
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7559
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.8.3
> Reporter: Andrzej Jarmoniuk
> Assignee: Elliotte Rusty Harold
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.8.x-candidate, 3.9.0, 4.0.0, 4.0.0-alpha-3

> Since I know that ComparableVersion was brought to Maven from
> versions-maven-plugin, it turns out the bug described here:
> https://github.com/mojohaus/versions-maven-plugin/issues/744
> also exists in maven, at least in 3.8.3.
> According to the maven version spec, versions containing a qualifier should
> be treated as less major than the same versions without the qualifier.
> Currently it's only the case for a few "standard" qualifiers, e.g. "-rc*",
> "-alpha", etc.
> However, it looks like "2.3-pfd" is deemed less major than "2.3".
> {code:java}
> @Test
> public void testComparableVersionWithCustomQualifier()
> {
> assertThat( new ComparableVersion( "2.3" ).compareTo( new
> ComparableVersion( "2.3-pfd" ) ),
> greaterThan( 0 ) );
> }
> {code}
