-- Order matters It does.
Axiom uses a day/date/time format specifically to show order. My startup header shows the month of release and when this running code was built from that release: Version: Axiom (May 2016) Timestamp: Friday February 8, 2019 at 05:35:41 The git hash is embedded to specifically identify the related code. In the PDF generated from literate source you'll see the date and hash. For example, from the Axiom Wikipedia page PDF for the Jenks book: <https://github.com/daly/PDFS/commits?author=daly> 20210107 7beff147070c2fd433caddc60932eecd30ca28c3 <https://github.com/daly/PDFS/commit/40dbd52c0831377c8784eedf5b38714e37bb019a> At this point you have all useful, exact information. For some odd reason, version coding generates a lot of heat. I really didn't intend to restart that debate.
