semver point 10: > Build metadata MUST be ignored when determining version precedence.
chat log from slack: > 22:29 bcmills Tags with metadata are not unique: there is only a partial order among them, not a total order. > 22:30 In contrast, MVS requires a total order. (We can't choose between vX.Y.Z+a and vX.Y.Z+b, because SemVer defines them to be of equal precedence.) > 22:31 So instead, we accept the tag but convert it to a very nearby pseudo-version, which restores the total-order property. > 22:32 bcmills (We can't just reduce it to vX.Y.Z, because that version could have its own tag on yet another different commit.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
