Versioning compatibility with ivy2/maven wildcard patterns for first snapshot build after tag

[lokkju]

I'm loving this plugin, but I'm looking for a way to easily use it with dependency wildcard patterns in ivy and maven.

the current versioning pattern means that the first "snapshot" version after a tag is 0.0.1+20171207-1200 ; while the first committed version after a tag is 0.0.1+1-01234abcd

This means that a version spec like "0.0.1+" will select the older, snapshot, version over the newer version.

This could be solved just by changing the first snapshot build after a tag to use 0.0.1+0+20171207-1200

I know I can customize my version string - but this seems like a wide use case.

Interesting.

Here are the relevant cases:

1.0.0+20140707-1030
1.0.0+3-1234abcd
1.0.0+3-1234abcd+20140707-1030

Perhaps we can change that first one so it's:

1.0.0+0-00000000-20140707-1030
1.0.0+3-1234abcd
1.0.0+3-1234abcd+20140707-1030

Yup, that should work perfectly.
