Dear unison hackers,

We’re getting ready to publish a new beta release of Unison, and we have a question about what major version number to give it.

The version number got bumped to 2.51 for a while in the master branch of the git repo, but later I realized that there was no need for this, since the set of preferences hasn’t changed.  Yesterday, I changed it back to 2.50, but this apparently confused at least one person who had already installed 2.51.  

If a lot of people have already installed 2.51 then we should just put it back to 2.51.  This is what I will do (later today) by default, since I have no way of knowing how many people this is.

Thoughts?
