Revision history [back]

If you change the upstream repository then you must increase the upstream version. Period. If you don't want to have to make a lot of patch releases, then you should make sure it builds before you commit it to the farm.

The release increment is only to be used for when you change the release of the package without touching the upstream. This includes running the release again for new rosdep rules, running for new release targets (like os or platform), or to add a patch in the release repository (should ideally be reserved for third party packages).
