Actually it was not so. We decided that you will go to person who knows
more than me about vshard and ask him about preferred versions of vshard
for testing.

Once again: information that new tarantool release is compatible with
vshard from master is useless for tarantool users, because no one take
git version for more or less serious usage. Users relies on released
versions.
