Yuki Morishita updated CASSANDRA-3470: -------------------------------------- Attachment: 3470.txt Patch attached to allow extra version digit. Propose new version format is as follows. {code}[a-z][0-9a-z]*{code} > Add a second letter to Descriptor version > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-3470 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3470 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core > Reporter: Jonathan Ellis > Assignee: Yuki Morishita > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.0.3 > > Attachments: 3470.txt > > > Versions g and h are actually forwards-compatible with version f, and more > changes like that are easily forseeable (e.g., CASSANDRA-3407). > It would be nice to have an extra version digit (h1, h2, ... ha, hb, ...). > Otherwise our choices are forcing people to scrub for these changes > (unacceptable) or not updating the Descriptor version, which is suboptimal > since we don't know what the contents are until we try to read it and find > the latest parts missing. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
