Overview
Semantic versioning means attaching meaning to a version label. The version label is used to communicate how the piece of software it is attached to changed in relation to other versions of the same piece of software. The essential components of a semantic versioning-compliant version label are:
<major>.<minor>.<patch>[-pre-release-label][+build-metadata]
Concepts
Public API
The semantic versioning-compliant version labels carry meaning about the public API of the piece of software they are attached to. The public API describes how the software is consumed by its clients.
Major Version
Minor Version
Patch
Pre-Release Version
Build Metadata
Version Lock
Version Promiscuity
Versioned Artifact Immutability
