Versioning

Summary

In general, the semantic versioning schema should be followed.

Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the:

  • MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes,
  • MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards-compatible manner, and
  • PATCH version when you make backwards-compatible bug fixes.

Kernel version

  • Increase MAJOR version when introducing major changes: e.g., new virtual machine, significant consensus changes and new p2p protocol
  • Increase MINOR version when making scheduled/incremental changes: e.g., new feature and enhancements
  • Increase PATCH version for bugfixes only

Api Version

  • Increase MAJOR version when the API becomes incompatible
  • Increase MINOR version when adding new endpoints
  • Reserved
