Documentation version

Since the VC Database and its components each have their own versions, which are updated on different cycles, this documentation uses its own versioning scheme in the format x.y_r.

  • x.y: The first part of the documentation version corresponds to the major.minor version of the VC Database to which the documentation refers. Examples are 5.0 or 5.1.

  • r: The number after the underscore indicates a revision of the documentation.

The revision number is incremented when the minor or major version of any component changes, for example, when the vcdb-tool is updated from 1.1 to 1.2 or 2.0. Changes to the patch version of the VC Database or its components generally do not result in a new revision number. In such cases, the current revision is adjusted to reflect the patch changes.

If necessary, the documentation indicates which content applies to which patch version. Should a patch update nevertheless require significant changes to the documentation, the revision number may also be incremented.
