Spring 2.4.0 spring-boot docs version issue

Hi,

I noticed that the released spring-boot/docs/ version format changed from Major.Minor.Patch.Qualifier toMajor.Minor.Patch-Qualifier. Was this intended, or is it a bug?

Unfortunately, it breaks the Spring Initializr project: https://github.com/benwilcock/axon-initializr when it is trying to fetch the metadata from https://spring.io/project_metadata/spring-boot

Could not determine version based on '2.4.0-SNAPSHOT': version format is Major.Minor.Patch.Qualifier (e.g. 1.0.5.RELEASE)

https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/

Thanks, @snicoll. Your suggestion worked.

@jjathman we will release 0.9 sooner than later as I didn’t anticipate it would be a problem for users on 0.8 using live versions.

is there a workaround?

Yes. Register your own DefaultInitializrMetadataUpdateStrategy and override fetchSpringBootVersions to remove any 2.4 versions.
