can SC programmatically declare its version yet ?


quarkfile:

(
..
\versions:
  (
    "3.1.1" -> 145 // svn revision number
  )
..
)

thus you could fix bugs related to the 3.1.1 version

you could then commit changes for the 3.2 version

(
..
\versions:
  (
    "3.1.1" -> 147, // svn revision number
    "3.2" -> 148
  )
..
)


but you would have a hard time going back to 147 and fixing a bug there (you could only commit up to 149) and then returning to 3.2 world to further develop

but this is a rare case to fuss over considering the utility and audience size let's be realistic here yeah ?


Seems sensible. In most cases compatibility would not break between point versions of the app anyway, and bug fixes would thus apply retroactively, so if you wanted to do it:

    "3.1.1" -> 148, // svn revision number
    "3.2" -> 148

If it's a question of avoiding the additional testing then you're not bug fixing for earlier releases anyway (which in fact seems quite reasonable) and the versions can just be about compatibility issues.
