Bug ID: 198035
Summary: Make freebsd-version output revision information for
non-release builds
Product: Base System
Version: 10.1-STABLE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Currently, freebsd-version is not very useful on -STABLE and -CURRENT since the
version information it gives is too basic. freebsd-version on a release version
can tell you if the kernel is a different version from the userland and if the
running kernel is different from the installed kernel (by comparing to uname
output). On non-release versions, there could be some serious mismatches
between kernel and userland (especially on -CURRENT), and freebsd-version would
not indicate it, nor can it indicate that the userland was successfully
updated.
