> Key: ARROW-9014

> Crossbow uses setuptools_scm to generate a development version number using
> git describe command. This means that it finds the latest {{reachable}} tag
> from the current commit on master.
> The minor releases are created from the master branch whereas the patch
> release tags point to commits on maintenance branches (like 0.17.x) which
> means that if we already have released a patch version, like 0.17.1 then
> crossbow generates a version number like
> 0.17.0.dev{number-of-commits-from-0.17.0} and bumps its patch tag, eventually
> creating binary packages with version 0.17.1.dev123.
> The main problem with this is that the produced nightly python wheels are not
> picked up by pip, because on pypi we already have that patch release
> available and pip doesn't consider 0.17.1.dev123 newer than 0.17.1 (with
> --pre option passed).
> So to force pip to install the newer nightly packages we need to bump the
> minor version instead.
