    I'm not sure I see why it matters. The requirement is at least 3.2.5 and 
3.3.9 meets that requirement. I suppose we could pin travis to the minimum 
version but is there any particular reason to do so?

>             Project: TinkerPop
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: build-release

> Tinkerpop 3.2.2 changed the signature of the method 
> {{GraphTraversal.hasLabel}} from {{(String...)}} to {{(String, String...)}}. 
> While this is certainly an improvement, it is both source and binary 
> incompatible change.
> I.e. even if every usage of {{hasLabel}} had at least one parameter in the 
> user code, none of those calls will work until all the user code is 
> recompiled using Tinkerpop 3.2.2.
> I don't know the versioning policy of Tinkerpop but changes like the above in 
> a micro/patch release are generally unexpected.
> Please consider API checkers like http://revapi.org to warn about such 
> incompatible API changes...
