Reading the identify state says plainly when a platform describes no indicator, but writing it went ahead and patched IndicatorLED regardless. This bmc has neither that property nor the boolean that replaced it, and answered the write with an internal service error, which reached the user as one and the log as a traceback. Ask the same question the read asks. With neither property present there is nothing to write, so say so in the same words instead of finding out from the bmc.

Versioning and releases
The top-level VERSION file names the release the current branch is working toward. Build scripts
call ./mkversion, which turns it into the version stamped on packages: the tag itself on a release
tag (4.0.1), otherwise a development version (4.0.1.dev5+gdeadbee, or 4.0.1~dev5+gdeadbee for
the packages that have no setup.py).
mkversion also derives a version from the newest tag reachable from HEAD and uses whichever is
higher, so forgetting to bump VERSION after tagging the current branch cannot walk the version
backwards. Staying ahead of tags on other branches is what VERSION itself is for: patch releases
are tagged on release branches, which master never sees.
Cutting a new series:
- Land the release commit on master and tag
X.Y.0there. - Create branch
X.Yfrom that tag; it inheritsVERSION=X.Y.0. - Only then bump
VERSIONon master. Doing it before step 2 leaves the release branch on the wrong series.
Patch releases land on branch X.Y and are tagged X.Y.Z there; no VERSION edit is needed.
