get_webclient falls off its end when /api/login answers anything but 200, so it returned None. wc() passes that back, and thirty of the thirty-four call sites use it unchecked, so a refused login arrived as "'NoneType' object has no attribute 'grab_json_response'" from wherever it landed. Raised where the failure is known, and with the status: 404 is firmware with no web api, or a Redfish-only capture of one, while 401 is credentials it will not take. Neither was distinguishable before. The other four call sites are the inventory reads, and they always did check. They answer partially when the web interface is out of reach, which is why nodeinventory still says something useful. They ask through wc_if_available now, so that tolerance is stated rather than resting on a None.

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.
