Hi Dale, Therry, I am working on a libgit-based git integration for Pharo and I am facing the same problem about version numbers. So maybe I can help you if you are working on that. I had the same idea as Dale, using short SHAs instead of correlative numbers, but I didn't have the time yet to got down that path.
Therry, you said that > > you'll have a bunch of stuff expecting version numbers that will stop > working. > > Do you already know which stuff will stop working? That would be realy helpful.
