How we manage versions
The same number of version parts are required for each major.minor version of a product, the logic is:
If the first entry for a product is 9.0, we accept it.
If a new entry in the Catalog has 9.0.1, the original 9.0 entry will be automatically updated to 9.0.0 thereby forcing a three-part version number for consistency (9.0.0 and 9.0.1).
If there are two entries in the Catalog with the same major.minor version and title (like 9.0 and 9.0.0) they will be merged to form one record (after merging just 9.0.0 will be left).
Any existing match rules are added to the new consolidated record.
For example:
Adobe After Effects 9.0 has a match rule:
Adobe After Effects 9.0.0 has a match rule:
The source parts of these two match rules are merged to produce two new match rules associated with the new 9.0.0.0 version:
