Yes, I agree with you about the version number defined. But, how can we manage the code branch? For example, we have the version 2.3.1 now, If we want to fix a bug, which branch should we use? dev branch or the 2.3.0-release branch?
If we use the dev branch to fix bugs, it means the new features can not use the dev branch. Each feature needs to create an Individual branch? If we use the 2.3.0-release branch to fix bugs, it means the pr(to fix the bug in 2.3.x) needs to merge into all of the 2.3.0-release branch and dev branch.
