Versioning¶

The galois library uses semantic versioning. Releases are versioned major.minor.patch.

Major versions introduce API-changing features. Minor versions add features that are backwards-compatible with other releases. Patch versions make backwards-compatible bug fixes.

Alpha releases¶

Versions before 0.1.0 are alpha releases. Alpha releases are versioned 0.0.alpha. There is no API compatibility guarantee for them. They can be thought of as 0.0.alpha-major.

Beta releases¶

Versions before 1.0.0 are beta releases. Beta releases are versioned 0.beta.x and are API-compatible. They can be thought of as 0.beta-major.beta-minor.
