Version constraining to even/odd versions

Open darkdragon-001 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Some packages use even/odd versioning for stable/unstable version numbers (see Wikipedia). It would be nice if one could restrain versions in such a way that only stable numbers are proposed.

The GNOME checker supports GNOME's (previous) similar scheme. It does seem a reasonable addition elsewhere.

In the linked case of Calls you could fake it with:

        x-checker-data:
          type: git
          #version-scheme: semantic
          tag-pattern: ^(\d+\.\d*[02468]\.\d+)$
