Versioning
From ETSI Forge
To ensure that permanent URLs to an attachment for a specification is readable and permanent follow the best practices listed below.
Use Tags
Pretty view vs Raw view
Once the final version of the file is uploaded to the repository (see here how to do it), you want to create a GIT Tag with the correct version (e.g. the version of the ETSI Deliverable).
To do so, follow the steps:
- Go to the repository
- In the menu on the left, select
Repository
->Tags
Do not encode versioning in the files
Do not hard code the version in the file name, e.g. DO NOT:
my_file_v2.1.1.json
instead use
my_file.json
and let the GIT system manage and provide the licensing information.
In the same way, it is very bad practice to keep a list of folders such as (example based on fictitious ASN.1 modules for TB XYZ):
TB_XYZ_ASN.1_modules_v1 TB_XYZ_ASN.1_modules_v2 TB_XYZ_ASN.1_modules_v3 TB_XYZ_ASN.1_modules_v4 etc.
