The release number shows how many builds of the same version have been made. A high release is also baseline indicator that a package/project is stale downstream and/or upstream. When the first build of foo v1.5.0 is foo-1.5.0-6 because the author took the time to split up logical changes into separate commits, the value of that release number is lost. -- Maxwell G (@gotmax23) Pronouns: He/Him/His _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
