Versioning

Upgrading to Forgejo 7.0.1

It’s not that long ago that I wrote about doing routine upgrades on containerised web apps using Forgejo as an example as I upgraded Forgejo (my git repository manager) between patch versions of 1.21, then a few days later, they dropped 7.0.0

They say the major version jump is due to it being an LTS (long term support) release, and changing to semantic versioning 2.0.0 , but that doesn’t quite explain it to me, and I assume this is partly signifying the fork’s drift away from the gitea codebase. In any case, the upgrade to 7.0.0 it does involve some breaking changes, and signifies to me that a lot has been on, which makes me keen to wait for a patch release (I’m always keen for other people to debug these things) which has now landed.
