How about doing it the maven way? ;-) At the day of the release branch, keep the version in the release branch and increment the version of develop. Create a second Jenkins job. One building the release branch and one the develop. Having the Installer give the user 2 options. "Release Build SNAPSHOT" or "develop SNAPSHOT".
Just my 50ct to this ;-) Chris ________________________________________ Von: Erik de Bruin <e...@ixsoftware.nl> Gesendet: Mittwoch, 19.

The idea behind this is that we give testers access to the pre-RC release builds through the Installer, without having to change any settings/configs for the Installer. The develop branch will still be checked through the 'flex-sdk' job, so no developmental protocol will be lost. Does this sound as logical to you as it does to me? Or am I missing something?
