Versioning scheme
When a new version of the dumps is released, the version number of the release actually contains two version numbers: 1) the version of the code that generated the dumps, and 2) the version of Fallout 76 that the dumps were generated for. For example, release v1.2.0-v1.1.4.3 used v1.2.0 of the code to generate dumps for Fallout 76 when it was at version v1.1.4.3.
Whenever the dumping code is improved (for example to add a new type of dump or to fix a bug in the dump-generating code) the dump code version is incremented and the impacted dumps are regenerated for the same Fallout 76 version as the previous release. Similarly, when a new version of Fallout 76 is released, the previous release's dump-generating code is used to recreate all the dumps. Because only one of the two versions changes between each release, it is easy to see whether a change in the dumps was caused by an update in the dumper or by a change in the game.
