I agree this is cumbersome, we are doing this kind of manipulation in Debian too to compare the version packaged with the latest upstream release. If I remember well this convention is inherited from the CVS era, dots were not allowed in tag names and thus commonly replaced by underscores or dashes. > Approch 1: It will reuse the branch name of the current major version, > excluding master.
