Proposed wiki changes for discussion

Major version transitions

  1. request a new channel version-prefix (aka track) at https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/track-request-for-dvc/17735 (e.g. v2)
    • otherwise attempting to snapcraft release --channel=v2 will fail
  2. create a new legacy-dev git branch (e.g. 1.x-dev)
  3. (optional) give a warning message: cherry-pick 6f0a05a. Wait ~30 days before continuing to the next step
    • the idea is to warn & give 2 options: opt-in now, or opt-out permanently. Both options will suppress the warning. Ignoring the warning will result in an auto-upgrade in 30 days
  4. uncomment the echo "unset SNAP_CHANNEL" >>env.sh line in scripts/ci/before_install.sh
