In . NET, the assemblies
generated have four version numbers. I’ve heard a lot about larger version and smaller version (major version and minor version), and that those would be the first two numbers. I have heard that the third number would be "maintenance" and the fourth would be "revision", but I have also heard (and found on the internet) mentions to the third number as the number of build.
What is the "right" way to interpret numbers? Or is there more than one pattern? And when each number should be incremented?
Have you looked at the http://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 Backwards-compatible Manner, and 3 PATCH version when you make Backwards-compatible bug fixes.
