Description Nuno Teixeira freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2022-10-16 15:09:28 UTC 
Hello,

Current port version scheme is causing bumping portepoch because suffix
-<commit count> will be translated as .<commit count> misleading version to:

2.2.8 -> 2.2.1.16,1 (epoch=1)
2.3.26,1 -> 2.3.1.6,2 (epoch=2, to commit)

since:
2.2.8 > 2.2.1.16
2.3.26,1 > 2.3.1.6,1

In the future there will be more epoch bumps due to nature of how ports
framework understand x.y-z versions.

I'd like to hear your opinion on this issue and see if a solution is found to avoid aditional portepochs.

Thanks
