Hi all, we have three active 4.x branches: 4.x-HBase-1.3, 4.x-HBase-1.4, 4.x-HBase-1.5. It looks like we're lacking _basic_ discipline here. There are patches in some branches but not in others, some patches are different between these branches for no good reason, different tests fail, etc. I have run out of my available time to track these all down. I filed Jiras to that extend, but as is we're completely unable to release a coherent 4.15.0 version of Phoenix (it will be different between the three versions)
We can either just declare 4.x-HBase-1.3 dead and align -1.4 and -1.5, or folks reading this can please push their changes everywhere, or ... I don't know we give up? Release anyway? The 4.x-HBase-1.5 test suite is passing - I spent a lot of time on at least that. There are no excuses like "But it failed before!".(there's at least one known flapper, and I'll try to fix or disable that test) I'll stay to my threat and veto/revert any patch that changes that.If that ends up swimming against the stream and eats up too much of my time, I'll just give up! -- Lars
