Scott Carey commented on KAFKA-843: ----------------------------------- The final release artifact version will be version = "0.8", which cannot be constructed as "0.8-" + buildNumber. I am not against having the ability to set some sort of custom version for a build if others want it, but I am against such a thing forcing the final release artifact to have a version number that does not conform to the maven version numbering standards. As an aside, I don't see why one would want to modify the version number based on the build number -- maven repositories have a special case for SNAPSHOT (perhaps Ivy is deficient in SNAPSHOT support?). Maven 'snapshot' repositories can have multiple snapshots from different timestamps, and every continuous build system I've used was happy using plain SNAPSHOT and could tell you which SNAPSHOT came from a specific build. > Re-add the release-zip sbt target > --------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-843 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-843 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: packaging > Affects Versions: 0.8 > Reporter: Cosmin Lehene > Assignee: Cosmin Lehene > Fix For: 0.8 > > Attachments: KAFKA-843.patch, KAFKA-843.patch > > Original Estimate: 2h > Remaining Estimate: 2h > > This target has been removed a while ago. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
