Eric,
The model we have followed is that master retains the version number of
the latest patched release and then at the time of a release the version number
is increased. For releases PETSC_VERSION_RELEASE is defined to be 1 while
for master PETSC_VERSION_RELEASE is defined to be 0. Thus if you want to
switch between master and release you need to also include a check on the
PETSC_VERSION_RELEASE value.
I don't know if this is a good model, but it is the current model.
