Versioning

This project uses semantic versioning, which means that

  • bugfix updates (e.g. 1.0.0 => 1.0.1) just include small bugfixes or security relevant stuff without breaking changes,

  • minor updates (e.g. 1.0.0 => 1.1.0) include new features and smaller tasks without breaking changes and

  • major updates (e.g. 1.0.0 => 2.0.0) contain breaking changes which can be refactorings, features or bugfixes.

as can be seen by reading the project's change log.
