variable needs to be increased
(or "bumped") as part of that commit.
- This means that for new recipes you must be sure to add the <filename>PR</filename>
- variable and set its initial value equal to "r0".
- Failing to define <filename>PR</filename> makes it easy to miss when you bump a package.
- Note that you can only use integer values following the "r" in the
- <filename>PR</filename> variable.
+ For new recipes you should add the <filename>PR</filename>
+ variable and set its initial value equal to "r0", which is the default.
+ Even though the default value is "r0", the practice of adding it to a new recipe makes
+ it harder to forget to bump the variable when you make changes
+ to the recipe in future.
