Description (last modified by Shai Berger)

django.utils.version.get_major_version() should returns a x.y string, that is what we call a major version. It does that only for the ".0" versions -- It returns "1.8" for 1.8, and "1.8.1" for 1.8.1.

I'm not quite sure about the fix -- django.utils.version.get_major_version() looks like a public interface but it is not documented. Now that the tests have been fixed, its only use in the Django code base is in the same file (from get_version()).

Should we just make it private?

Summary: Test failure: Pickleabilitydjango.utils.version.get_major_version() does not return the major version

I see that the PR is already merged, so there are no longer test failures and what's left is not a release blocker.

I updated the summary and description to focus on the issues left.
