A. semver.satisfies('~1.2.3', '1.2.4') => true
B. semver.satisfies('~1.2', '1.3.0') => false
C. semver.satisfies('~1.2', '1.2.6') => true
D. semver.satisfies('1.2', '1.3.0') => false
E. semver.satisfies('1.2', '1.2.4') => true
My understanding is similar to Forrest's. ~1.2.3 means 1.2.3 <= version <
1.3.0, whereas ~1.2 means 1.2.0 <= version < 1.3.0
With Forrest's explanation, semver.satisfies('~1.2.3', '1.2.1') would be
true, whereas I would expect it to be false. +1 for the "squishiness",
however, but I prefer that as an indicator to NPM that patch updates are
acceptable while still guaranteeing all the patches in 1.2.3 are present.
