Usually, in libraries (I’m talking about any programming language), we have the current version of the library. I’m not talking about something like Symfony 2 or jQuery 2 (which are names usually used to present the library), but I speak of those versions which have a three numbers separated by dots.

For example:

 Windows 6.1.12 (Windows 8, eu acho)
 jQuery 1.11.1 ou 1.10.12
 Laravel 4.2.6 (Todo mundo fala apenas Laravel 4)

I would like to understand what each point of this means, because I also work with libraries and I would like to understand how to work better with the versioning of them.

Sample questions

  • What would theoretically be the difference between jQuery 1.10.12 and jQuery 1.11.0?

  • What would theoretically be the difference between jQuery 1.10.0 and jQuery 1.10.5?

  • What would theoretically be the difference between jQuery 1.11.23 and jQuery 2.0.0?

  • The Gypsy also showed me that he already had here: http://answall.com/questions/101896/como-definir-a-vers%C3%A3o-de-um-software/101899#101899

  • In these cases it becomes more legal when each vote on a different duplicate, because the two (or more) appear in the yellow box.
