If you are using the Synapse UI to update your files, adding or editing annotations and provenance will not update the file version.
Refer to Annotating Data With Metadata /wiki/spaces/DOCS/pages/2667708522 for instructions on adding/editing annotations via the Synapse UI.
If you are using programmatic clients to update your files, any change to a file will automatically update the version, including changes to annotations and provenance. In some rare cases, you may not want to create a new version when you make changes to a file. The main function for storing or updating an entity in the Python and R clients is the store function (see the Python docs or R docs for more information). This function takes an optional forceVersion parameter, whose default value is True. This means that whenever store is called to update an existing entity, the version is increased even if nothing has changed on the entity. If you specifically do not want to change the version when using the store function, include a forceVersion=False parameter.
