# ADR-015: Phase 5 Implementation Approach
|
|
|
|
## Status
|
|
Accepted
|
|
|
|
## Context
|
|
The development team requested clarification on two implementation decisions for Phase 5:
|
|
1. Version numbering progression from current 0.5.1
|
|
2. Git workflow for implementing Phase 5 features
|
|
|
|
These decisions needed to be documented to ensure consistent implementation and provide clear guidance for future phases.
|
|
|
|
## Decision
|
|
|
|
### Version Numbering
|
|
We will increment the version directly from 0.5.1 to 0.6.0, skipping any intermediate patch versions (e.g., 0.5.2).
|
|
|
|
### Git Workflow
|
|
We will use a feature branch named `feature/phase-5-rss-container` for all Phase 5 development work.
|
|
|
|
## Rationale
|
|
|
|
### Version Numbering Rationale
|
|
1. **Semantic Versioning Compliance**: Phase 5 introduces significant new functionality (RSS feeds and production containerization), which according to semantic versioning warrants a minor version bump (0.5.x → 0.6.0).
|
|
|
|
2. **Clean Version History**: Jumping directly to 0.6.0 avoids creating intermediate versions that don't represent meaningful release points.
|
|
|
|
3. **Feature Significance**: RSS feed generation and production containerization are substantial features that justify a full minor version increment.
|
|
|
|
4. **Project Standards**: This aligns with our versioning strategy documented in `/docs/standards/versioning-strategy.md` where minor versions indicate new features.
|
|
|
|
### Git Workflow Rationale
|
|
1. **Clean History**: Using a feature branch keeps the main branch stable and provides a clear history of when Phase 5 was integrated.
|
|
|
|
2. **Easier Rollback**: If issues are discovered, the entire Phase 5 implementation can be rolled back by reverting a single merge commit.
|
|
|
|
3. **Code Review**: A feature branch enables proper PR review before merging to main, ensuring quality control.
|
|
|
|
4. **Project Standards**: This follows our git branching strategy for larger features as documented in `/docs/standards/git-branching-strategy.md`.
|
|
|
|
5. **Testing Isolation**: All Phase 5 work can be tested in isolation before affecting the main branch.
|
|
|
|
## Consequences
|
|
|
|
### Positive Consequences
|
|
- Clear version progression that reflects feature significance
|
|
- Clean git history with logical grouping of related commits
|
|
- Ability to review Phase 5 as a cohesive unit
|
|
- Simplified rollback if needed
|
|
- Consistent with project standards
|
|
|
|
### Negative Consequences
|
|
- Feature branch may diverge from main if Phase 5 takes extended time (mitigated by regular rebasing)
|
|
- No intermediate release points during Phase 5 development
|
|
|
|
### Neutral Consequences
|
|
- Developers must remember to work on feature branch, not main
|
|
- Version 0.5.2 through 0.5.9 will be skipped in version history
|
|
|
|
## Alternatives Considered
|
|
|
|
### Version Numbering Alternatives
|
|
1. **Incremental Patches**: Create 0.5.2 for RSS, 0.5.3 for container, etc.
|
|
- Rejected: Creates unnecessary version proliferation for work that is part of a single phase
|
|
|
|
2. **Jump to 1.0.0**: Mark Phase 5 completion as V1 release
|
|
- Rejected: V1 requires Micropub implementation (Phase 6) per project requirements
|
|
|
|
### Git Workflow Alternatives
|
|
1. **Direct to Main**: Implement directly on main branch
|
|
- Rejected: No isolation, harder rollback, messier history
|
|
|
|
2. **Multiple Feature Branches**: Separate branches for RSS and container
|
|
- Rejected: These features are part of the same phase and should be reviewed together
|
|
|
|
3. **Long-lived Development Branch**: Create a `develop` branch
|
|
- Rejected: Adds unnecessary complexity for a small project
|
|
|
|
## Implementation Notes
|
|
|
|
The developer should:
|
|
1. Create feature branch: `git checkout -b feature/phase-5-rss-container`
|
|
2. Update version in `starpunk/__init__.py` from `"0.5.1"` to `"0.6.0"` as first commit
|
|
3. Implement all Phase 5 features on this branch
|
|
4. Create PR when complete for review
|
|
5. Merge to main via PR
|
|
6. Tag release after merge: `git tag -a v0.6.0 -m "Release 0.6.0: RSS feed and production container"`
