Let IntegerVersionField starts with '1'

[shintophilip]

Suppose we have a model,

class User(models.Model):
    version = AutoIncVersionField()

    id = models.UUIDField(primary_key=True, default=uuid.uuid4)
    name = models.CharField(max_length=255)

If we create the object using create, we are getting the expected version value(which is 1).

User.objects.create(name='name')

But instead of that if we create the model using the initializer and create it using the save() method. The version is 2.

user = User(name='name')
user.save()

IntegerVersionField is not what you are looking for. Check AutoIncVersionField. Please consider that you should not add semantic to those values and ignore them, because concurrency is a low level system that should not be exposed to the business logic.

Yes. It was a mistake while copying the code. It is AutoIncVersionField.

Agreeing to your point that - concurrency is a low level system that should not be exposed to the business logic. There is no harm in version getting initialized with 2 while creating a model with version with value 2. Thought the expected behavior of AutoIncVersionField is always to increment by 1.

yep, probably is true and I keep this issue opened as enhancement
