I think some kind of hint would help, a quick google search for me

However, I think (naively) calling /current/ the canonical version may

Yeah, perhaps it's better to start out referring to the 2.2
documentation as the 'upgrade' for 2.0. I have been researching a bit on
how it's done, and it seems that the best approach would be to add the
canonical tag for each individual page, f.x. mod/core.html would then
have the following tag:
<link href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html";
rel="canonical" />
This is something Rich did for the 1.3 docs earlier this year. He
actually was using the "current" links then.
Example from /docs/1.3/invoking.html:
<head>
<META NAME="ROBOTS" CONTENT="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW">
<meta name="generator" content="HTML Tidy, see www.w3.org" />
<link rel="canonical"
href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/invoking.html"/>
<title>Starting Apache</title>
</head>
This is an automated process, and may refer to some non-existent pages
where the 2.0 and 2.2 modules differ, but Google claims to be able to
sort this out by themselves.
It would be cool if each page in the manual had a persistent link to
toggle the version being displayed (where applicable!). If only there
was someone who wasn't afraid to generates pages of commit messages :)
That's an idea as well, and while I'm not against it in any way, I think
it may just be a whole lot of manual work if I were to add a 'version
changer' for each applicable page. But I'll think about that as well - I
have a tendency to go ahead and make crazy things like this anyway ;)
