Had a closer look at this, and there is some cmake logic when
generating calligraversion.h:
Any 3.0.x unstable (alpha/beta/rc) will get version 2.99.x. (3.1.x
will be 3.0.x, etc)
Afaics this scheme only works when a minor version is increased, e.g
3.0.x -> 3.1.0.
Is this a disaster? Probably not. If you add a conditional compile
e.g in 3.0.1 you cannot test in an unstable release, but that would
not be often, I think.
Alternatives:
1) Add a unstable release number as proposed by Rene.
2) Drop the special unstable numbers (89, 90..) and use the release
number as a sequential number.
E.g: We released stable 3.0.0, so now the unstable will get 3.0.1
(string could be 3.0.1 Alpha) and when we make a new release it
would be 3.0.2.
This will give unique and increasing version numbers, with the
drawback that you can not see from version alone if it is unstable
or stable, but we can use version string for that.
Opinions?
IIRC we release no alphas. Even when we had that, we release no alphas
the patch version - for x.y.z (z>0).
x.(y-1).89 is thus compatible with the sequence, it comes after all
x.(y-1).* stable and before the next stable x.y.z.
Hmmm, do you mean we only release unstable when minor version is
updated, in which case this will (almost) work?
I think we still have the problem that the version in git will get a
lower version than the last version released, but as said above we could
live with that.
Between 3.0.0 and 3.0.1 there's no extra number needed.
What we had with the x.y.z.v was special I think. (?)
Yes, forget that.

I can't figure out how this is meant to be used.
We have now released 3.0.0.1. Next should probably be 3.0.1.
So I gather current should be an alpha:
Major: 3
Minor: 0
Release: 89
But then we would go backwards to Release: 1 when releasing,
and after that we go to Release: 89 again and we can't see
what 3.0.89 actually means as it will crop up for every new 3.0
release.
Is it just me being confused, or...
Anybody?
