Version files are overwritten without notification

Opened this issue · 2 comments

As a developer, if I manually update the version file any changes will be overwritten by version-upper script and replaced base on information in the version config file. A header string in the version file would be helpful to avoid this.

Follow-on question: Are the multiple files necessary to maintain the version information?

What header string did you have in mind? What multiple files are you referring to?

Not sure what wording is best, but here is how Roxygen does it in R. https://github.com/r-lib/devtools/blob/master/NAMESPACE
