Add UUID version 7 #54834

Do we plan on using version 7 UUIDs in Julia/Pkg? If not, could we add this functionality to a package, instead of adding it to a stdlib? |
|
Why not add it to UUIDs, the probably most widely used UUID package? What harm does this do here? It's not like there are any UUID user packages (other than Libuuid_jll) at all, and I'd really like to avoid registering a new package for 12 LOC (without docs) that fit perfectly into this existing code. |
|
Since it is only 7 lines of simple code, I think it probably makes sense to keep UUID7 with UUIDs.jl. |
|
The failure seems like a race condition in some other part of the testsuite. The commit running here only changed NEWS.md, so no functional changes were made. The commit before that one ran through successfully. |

I agree that this is the most logical place to collect UUID-related code. Additionally, it's a nice benefit at very little cost, so I agree we should merge it. Thanks, @Seelengrab! |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Not sure if this is worth fixing, but this line should've probably went to the Standard library changes section below, under "UUIDs".
