[GitHub] [geode] PurelyApplied commented on issue #3058: GEODE-6259: Refine version specification and consumption

["PurelyApplied (GitHub)" <gi...@apache.org>]

It warrants discussion on what we wish to consider the actual source of truth for versioning, and how that should relate to the pipeline's "operational truth."  As a Geode developer, it is ideal for me to know the build ID on a given job, but as a Geode consumer, we seem to want to only expose the newest `-SNAPSHOT` without the build ID.  So on the one hand, the fully-qualified semver as passed to the Concourse job is my truth as a developer, but as a consumer, only the `1.9.0-SNAPSHOT` et al as present in our `gradle.properties` matters.

I would personally prefer to publish the snapshot with the build ID, but we have added the logic to only publish a `-SNAPSHOT` to the gradle.  That could be refined in whatever direction discussion suggests.
