Release Types

This repository uses semantic versioning, thus, quoting from semver.org:

Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:

1. MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes,
2. MINOR version when you add functionality in a backward compatible manner
3. PATCH version when you make backward compatible bug fixes.

Additional labels for pre-release and build metadata are available as extensions to the MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH format.

For a pre-release we use the synonym "snapshot". Such a snapshot release has a label rc, so that the Release Candidate for version 1.2.3 would be 1.2.3-rc.4, where 4 is the next snapshot increment version.

If in doubt, choose:

• patch for typical releases to be used on the website.
• snapshot for releases to be used for testing purposes.
