Description

Example:
  • sdk/ruby/arvados.gemspec reports itself as 1.4.1.timestamp1
  • services/api/Gemfile pins an arvados gem version by commit hash, and bundler writes "1.4.1.timestamp1" in Gemfile.lock
  • bundler succeeds at version 1.4.1.timestamp2
  • sometime later, a 1.4.2 tag is added somewhere in the repo
  • checkout version 1.4.1.timestamp2 and run bundler
  • bundler checks out the specified git hash, but the resulting arvados.gemspec now reports itself as 1.4.2.timestamp1
  • bundler fails at version 1.4.1.timestamp2

The "use git tag to figure out version at runtime" code used to use the latest tag reachable from HEAD, which makes recent/dev versions appear older than they really are (e.g., 1.4.2 isn't an ancestor of master) -- then it changed in ff48e70fd7cc41997a27c0b04bb38149a6abfa0d to report the highest version in the repo, which makes older/released versions appear newer than they really are.
