[jira] [Commented] (ARROW-979) [Python] Fix setuptools_scm version when release tag is not in the master timeline

["Uwe L. Korn (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-979?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16027475#comment-16027475 ] 

Uwe L. Korn commented on ARROW-979:
-----------------------------------

This most simple fix for this would be to tag the first commit post-release on master with {{apache-arrow-0.4.0.post}}. This would restore {{setuptools_scm}} functionality again and we would be able to do releases off master.

[~wesmckinn] would that be ok with you?

[~julienledem] Is there any problem with doing non-release tags in git?

> Independent of the discussion about the release branching process, SCM auto-versioning tools should not be dependent on finding a release tag in the timeline
