VersioningPolicy
v1 v2 1 = Versioning policy = 2 1 3 We generally have a major and minor version number. e.g. `1.5` Sometimes we have point releases, e.g. `1.5.1`. Note: These are not 'decimal' numbers, simply integers separated by a dot. e.g. `1.11` is 'one point eleven', not 'one point one one' and is a later release than `1.2`. 2 4 3 On the `default` branch, when youapproach a release, we up the minor version number, and add `a` to indicate alpha, e.g. `1.2a`. There may be further trial states e.g. `1.2b` and `1.2c`, before the final release of `1.2`.5 On the `default` branch, when we approach a release, we up the minor version number, and add `a` to indicate alpha, e.g. `1.2a`. There may be further trial states e.g. `1.2b` and `1.2c`, before the final release of `1.2`. 4 6 5 7 The final release goes to the metastable and eventually the other branches too, keeping this version number.
