3.1.0-SNAPSHOT would be simply wrong, as 3.1.0 is already released. So it should be 3.1.1-SNAPSHOT.

Yes, that is fine with me. As long as it has a SNAPSHOT in the version.

 

 

Omitting master would be confusing, as every newcomer assumes there is a master and it is the way towards the next major release.

 

IMHO the best we could do is merge release-4.0 into master and in turn drop release-4.0 branch.

That's totally fine too. I've got no issues with the branch names. It's just currently a bit confusing because master is 3.1.0, release-3.1 is is also 3.1.0 (also wrong IMO, should be 3.1.1-SNAPSHOT), and release-4.0 is 4.0.0-SNAPSHOT (correct).

The typical workflow I've seen, and use personally, is main (master) is the current working target e.g. 4.0.0-SNAPSHOT and 3.1.x would be branched off the last tag with the version 3.1.1-SNAPSHOT.

Along these lines, the master branch seems in an odd state to me. The version is set to 3.1.0 which is really not great if you build it locally as it pollutes your local Maven repository. Especially if it does include new features. At minimum, IMO, the version should be set to 3.1.0-SNAPSHOT. It should likely be changed to something else, but SNAPSHOT is critical.

 

Should we just remove the master branch and use the release-$version branches?

Markus,

 

I noticed that we piled up several outdated branches.

 

If nobody objects, I'd like to remove all of them but just keep the following:

- master

- release-4.0

- release-3.1.x

 

 I was thinking about this yesterday, so no objections. Did you check how master and release-3.1.x differ BTW?

 

 Thanks.

 

— Santiago
