    Peng Lyu (@rebornix) I've been noticing a bit of confusion regarding the "version" property in https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/blob/main/package.json during the phase before releasing a new version. So, for example during Monday-Wednesday before the planned release 1.73 this week Wednesday, we see "version": "1.73.0" for the main branch, but in fact it should be "1.74.0", since the main branch has already been worked on with commits belonging to 1.74 (November release)

    Wouldn't it be more logical to switch the main branch version to 1.74 immediately after the release/1.73 branch was created (Friday last week, AFAICT) and just before work begins on 1.74?

    If this change were done, you wouldn't need the Bump up the version in package.json on main entry anymore for Wednesday/Thursday.

    Lorand Horvath (@lorand-horvath) thanks for the reminder and it makes good sense to bump version in the main branch right after we create the release branch.

    It should've worked. It will work from now on: #165132
