This document is the outline for SMVS, or the Samr Month Versioning System.
SMVS is a version numbering system devised by samr to create an easier system for developers to use.
Everything written in this document is under the terms of the MIT License.
Given a version number YEAR.MONTH[MINOR]:
- YEAR should be the calendar year which the specific version of the software is released in
- MONTH should be the calendar month which the specific version of the software is released in
- MINOR should be a Latin alphabet character, incrementing for each minor version release
For example, a piece of software on its third minor revision within the month of April 2021 would be 2021.4c.
- The software is released in the year of 2021
- The software is released in the month of April (the fourth month)
- The software is on its third revision in April 2021 ('c' is the third letter of the Latin alphabet)
To show that you use SMVS, please link to this page from your software README file!
