(Previously, on "migrating to jgit timestamps"...) Instead of a BUILD_ALIAS like Alpha1 or Beta1, which forces users to download a whole JBT or devstudio install each time we release a new milestone, plugins and features will soon use the timestamp of their last change in github. Note that two plugins will continue to have a BUILD_ALIAS applied: foundation.core & devstudio.core.central, which define the version of JBoss Tools / devstudio used by ide-config.properties to assign the correct URLs for Central and quickstarts.

This is no longer true -- a dirty github workspace will still result in upversioned plugin timestamps. I believe this should even work across timezones, since the plugins I built appear to be timestamped in GMT, not EST.

Anyway, thanks for reading this far. The PRs in JBIDE-13671 have been applied, and fresh CI builds should be available tomorrow. Ref: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-13671

Thanks for verifying Nick and Mickael - so I was correct in it is the plugins AND features that will change. Not just the plugins. I would suggest we ensure we add tests for this so we don't miss it, since I reckon the feature is also included in a feature that might not be automatically upversioned ? /max > Or look at the examples I posted on the JIRA [1] .
