Why not use two date codes, the release date and the update date?
- eqvinox 7y agoFor starters, that's a pretty long version number, making it difficult to see at a glance what the relation is. One date (or two for comparing) is something humans are trained to handle, two dates (or four!) not so much. Also, now you just have SemVer with really large version numbers.
- paulddraper 7y agoThe release date portion may be abbreviated (assuming no more than one major release per month). Released 2020-04-05, updated 2020-10-15. Version: 2004.201015 I'm not in love with that, but that's how I'd assume it'd work.
