Pull a form with submissions referencing multiple versions including a version with a blank name (no version attribute)
Push that form to Central
Expected behavior
A blank version should be treated the same as any other version.
Other information
There are a couple of issues. First, we need a way to represent empty form versions in the metadata json file. Then, we need a way to communicate the blank version name to Central. We currently use this endpoint to force a version on publish. It does not support forcing an empty version number. We could generate the submission locally and push it or perhaps consider changing the Central API.
