For repos that use SemVer, there are two options: 1. Update the version number at the time that the change is made 2. Update the version number only when doing a release.
Right now, #2 is what I've put in the wiki instructions, but it can be changed of course :) Two main reasons I think #2 will work better: - #1 might be too complicated (might forget to update it, may update the version multiple times if multiple feature changes go in) - #2 If doing a release, you should know what you're releasing. Having to choose the right version number will force you to understand what you're releasing.
