Michael Vorburger commented on FINERACT-1154:
---------------------------------------------

For the future record, we had follow-up discussions about this on 
[https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/1387] and 
[https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/1390]. The TL;DR of the discussion 
above is that the goal here is that currently this is wrong:

{noformat}$ git clone https://github.com/apache/fineract.git ; cd fineract
$ git describe 
1.3.0-861-g3ee46b040

$ wget 
https://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=fr/brouillard/oss/jgitver/0.12.0/jgitver-0.12.0-executable.jar
 -O ~/bin/jgitver-executable.jar
$ java -jar ~/bin/jgitver-executable.jar
1.3.1-744-develop{noformat}

But AFTER (either of) [~ptuomola] PR #1387 or my PR #1390 it will be correct:

{noformat}$ git describe 
1.4.0-108-g09e08fdc7

$ java -jar ~/bin/jgitver-executable.jar
1.4.1-1-develop
{noformat}

BTW that _1.4.1-1-develop_ doesn't seem that great, to me personally - perhaps 
we can customize that?

I've [made an 
edit|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/diffpagesbyversion.action?pageId=67640333&selectedPageVersions=66&selectedPageVersions=67]
 to the Release Doc - please do improve, if not clear enough.

> 1.4.0. IMHO a 1.4.0 should be a tag not a branch, and there could be a branch
