Geoffrey Jacoby commented on PHOENIX-6457:
------------------------------------------
[~larsh] - this changes the schema of System.Catalog, which makes it ineligible
to be in a patch release. Hence it went in 4.x (4.17) and master (5.2) but not
5.1 (5.1.2) or 4.16 (4.16.2)
> Optionally store schema version string in SYSTEM.CATALOG

> Key: PHOENIX-6457
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-6457
> Project: Phoenix
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Geoffrey Jacoby
> Assignee: Geoffrey Jacoby
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 4.17.0, 5.2.0
>
>
> In many environments, schema changes to Phoenix tables are applied in batches
> associated with a version of an application. (For example, v1.0 of an app may
> start with one set of CREATE statements, v1.1 then adds some ALTER
> statements, etc.)
> It can be useful to be able to look up the latest app version in which a
> table or view was changed; this could potentially be added as a feature of
> the Schema Tool.
> This change would add an optional property to CREATE and ALTER statements,
> SCHEMA_VERSION, which would take a user-supplied string.
> This is also a pre-req for PHOENIX-6227, because we would want to pass the
> schema version string, if any, to an external schema repository in
> environments where we're integrating with one.
