New in development version or versionadded

[Graham King]

Hi,

I'm writing docs for a patch (#8348), and wondering how to indicate
that that feature is only available in the development version. This
used to be:

**New in Django development version**

but now I think it should be:

.. versionadded:: dev

however a grep can't find either of the above in the current docs.
What is the preferred syntax?

Thanks,
Graham

Use "..versionadded::", but make the version be 1.1, not "dev". There's
a patch that we haven't applied yet, but will soon, in Trac to convert
all references to the next version to read "development version" when we
generate the HTML.

That saves us having to go through and change all occurrences of "dev
verison" to "1.1" before releasing "1.1", etc (when we always miss
something).

Regards,
Malcolm

For the record;
That maybe #9436, http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/9436 ;)
