"target version" and "fix version" fields for 2.8/2.9

[Lars Volker <lv...@cloudera.com>]

Hi all,

Do we have an automated way of checking "fix version" fields for
correctness? Out of habit I had put "Impala 2.8.0" there, until I realized
that the 2.8.0-rc had been cut already. I went through my changes, manually
checking whether the fix was included in the rc branch, and set the "fix
version" to "impala 2.9.0" if it wasn't. Do we have tooling to validate and
adjust the "fix version" automatically?

Similarly I noticed that some issues were created with "target version" =
"Impala 2.8.0", but now their fixes did not make it into 2.8. Is there a
policy what to do with those?

Thanks, Lars

The easiest way to do that is to 'release' 2.8 on JIRA, which as part of
the workflow asks what you want to do with the 2.8 items that aren't fixed.
Usually we bump them all to the next version, then ask people to triage
them out if they're a) assigned to them and b) not going to be worked on
soon.

I'll respond to the second part - I'm not sure about the first. I think we
just need to go through and move JIRAs with a target version of 2.8 to 2.9
(or to backlog if that fits better).
