> There is a powerful version matcher in Ivy code base called
> PatternVersionMatcher. Unfortunately, this matcher is not documented, not
> tested, and not declared in the default typedef.properties. Nobody remembers
> where it comes from, but code analysis should be enough to understand how it
> works and what it can achieve.
> Here's what I understand from a quick analysis:
> {code:title=settings.xml}
> <pattern-vm>
> <match revision="micro" pattern="${major}\.${minor}\.\d+" args="major,
> minor" matcher="regexp" />
> </pattern-vm>
> {code}
> {code:title=ivy.xml}
> <dependency org="acme" name="foo" rev="micro(1, 3)" />
> {code}
> If I understand correctly the code, this will match any revision like
> 1.3.<any number>.
