SemVer version 0.5.0 ==================== This module subclasses [`version`] to create semantic versions, as defined by the [Semantic Versioning 1.0.0 Specification] The two salient points of the specification, for the purposes of version formatting, are: 1. A normal version number MUST take the form X.Y.Z where X, Y, and Z are integers. X is the major version, Y is the minor version, and Z is the patch version. Each element MUST increase numerically by increments of one. For instance: `1.9.0 < 1.10.0 < 1.11.0`. 2. A pre-release version number MAY be denoted by appending an arbitrary string immediately following the patch version and a dash. The string MUST be comprised of only alphanumerics plus dash C<[0-9A-Za-z-]>. Pre-release versions satisfy but have a lower precedence than the associated normal version. Precedence SHOULD be determined by lexicographic ASCII sort order. For instance: `1.0.0-alpha1 < 1.0.0-beta1 < 1.0.0-beta2 < 1.0.0-rc1 < 1.0.0`.
