#47500: git-flow-devel @15aab26490facf285acef56cb5d61025eacb3a69: should not use the commit id as version number -----------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: davide.liessi@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: haspatch | Port: git-flow-devel -----------------------------+-------------------------------- Version comparison (e.g. `port outdated`) is confused by commit ids used as version numbers: the next commit id could be less than the current, in lexicographic order. Using the date of the commit in AAAAMMDD format like e.g. in ffmpeg-devel, frescobaldi-devel, gccxml-devel, ensures that version comparison works as expected. (An update in git-flow-devel is unlikey, given that it hasn't changed since 2012, but I think that it is important to fix this, because you never know.) -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/47500> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
