I'm following https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Edge to upgrade alpine 3.5.1 to edge. The /etc/apk/repository is

http://dl-2.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main
http://dl-2.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community
@testing http://dl-2.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/testing

And I do the following command:

apk upgrade --update-cache --available

Then my alpine is back to 3.5.0

cat /etc/alpine-release
3.5.0

If I change the /etc/apk/repository to

http://dl-2.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.5/main
http://dl-2.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main
http://dl-2.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community
@testing http://dl-2.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/testing

It back to 3.5.1, but gdk-pixbuf downgrading from 2.36.5-r0 -> 2.36.2-r0

It seems that Edge always reports 3.5.0. So that version number may not be reliable. I would say that this is standard for development versions.

$ docker run alpine:3.4 cat /etc/alpine-release
3.4.6

$ docker run alpine:edge cat /etc/alpine-release
3.5.0
