In semver, everything is versioned with three digits, MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, which start at 0.1.0 and are incremented as follows:
- Patch: After a backward-compatible hotfix
- Minor: After a backward-compatible set of features/bug fixes have been implemented
- Major: After a backward-incompatible change
We will be following semantic versioning for our releases.
As with naming feature branches, there are no "right" ways to name release branches. For example, you can suffix the release version with a brief description of what is included in this release, such as release/0.1.0-social-login or release/0.1.0__social-login. Again, the most important thing is to have a rule and be consistent with it.
