Hi,
I generally like this - the only thing that I am not sure about is the
alpha label.
I get that it works great with alphabetic ordering - but for me alpha
tends to signify some kind of test release. Could we perhaps make it
-dev? :). If we then use -rc instead of -beta we have alphabetical
Actually, thinking about it some more - could we just not have the
-alpha (or -dev) label, and go back to how it was before - with a
changed meaning?
so - just 3.1.0-[commit-number] for the development builds. This would
still work in a sem-ver style since…
3.1.0-12 < 3.1.0-beta.1 < 3.1.0

Using "3.1.0-X" would also feel semantically a bit confusing I think
as we'd be changing the meaning of a scheme we're already using.
I like the idea of using "dev.X" and "rcX". I was originally feeling
similar about "alpha" but the sorting is a nice property to have.
Swtiching from "beta" to "rc"
I like -dev and -rc more as well. -alpha on the master branch seems weird to
me. I feel like alpha implies we actually did an official branched release, and
not just commits from the main line where we’re doing development.

Let's just do dev/rc then, seems that's what more people prefer. And
then we'll go ahead with your sc
