Michael Semb Wever commented on CASSANDRA-20130:
------------------------------------------------

bq. your other comment above, what is the concern with churn? is it that we 
have to maintain that file? fwiw, using an older release of a specific version 
isn't generally a problem for development

yeah, it encourages maintenance and ongoing edits to the file.  while it's not 
a problem to specify an out-of-date jdk patch version, that's going to annoy 
folk, and they will want to update the file, and that's just an unnecessary 
noise/churn and not really a concern to the code repo.  that jenv and pyenv 
would work without the patch versions was something i checked before creating 
the ticket.

> Commit in-tree both the .java-version and .python-version files.
> Each branch has a default java version and python version.  We can honour 
> that, and make life one less command when switching branches for those using 
> jenv and/or pyenv. 
> For those that do not have either jenv or pyenv installed, no harm.
> It will need run… (as .gitignore won't work here) …so devs can still 
> customise both…

> git update-index --assume-unchanged .java-version .python-version
