Versioning
Dolt uses a three digit versioning format –
major.minor.patch. For major, minor, and patch version bumps, you can expect:- Patch version bumps (e.g.
1.0.0→1.0.1) – Patch version bumps will NOT change any interfaces; they include bug fixes, performance improvements, and additive features. You can safely pick up patch releases without having to update your application code. - Minor version bumps (e.g.
1.0.0→1.1.0) – Minor version bumps signal that the release contains an interface change, such as changing the signature of a Dolt CLI command or stored procedure. Your application code may require an update to move to a minor version bump if it is using an affected interface. Affected interfaces are called out in release notes. - Major version bumps (e.g.
1.0.0→2.0.0) - Major version bumps signal a significant change that requires database data to be migrated, for example, moving to a new low-level storage format. Major version bumps will be extremely rare.
