that’s with the assumption that the smallest increment was used every time
I sometimes increment things by adding the next decimal place
note: I am not a developer, just a dude making tools at work. but I somehow always end up incrementing something now and then from 1.21 to 1.211 because I wanted to avoid the “1.21 new actually newest” situation and bumping to 1.22 didn’t make sense. it’s like temporary versioning for me, WIP files
So +190 increment is totally ok for you, but +1 sometimes “didn’t make sense”. IT DOESN"T MAKE ANY SENSE! Oh, and you can use letters. 1.21 -> 1.21a looks MUCH more explanatory for your purposes than “+1 is too harsh increase, so I’ll increase on 190!”
Even if a developer would make a commit every second, it would take 250 million years to reach version 0.0.7899999999998765
Most of the mistakes they have to fix are incorrect version numbering.

Bothers me that you wouldn’t go for 1.21.1 but you got the freedom to be WRONG. WRONG WRONG WRONG[1] if you want.
just teasing with this part of my reply :) ↩︎
I do that too sometimes lol but I’m just not a fan
if it were actual releases, yeah totally. but it’s just temporary files

so I actually use various different systems depending on my mood that day.
maybe I add a dash, maybe I use another decimal, maybe I use alpha characters.
none of it matters because they’re wiped out a few hours later
Sub version tags make sense but for the the love of pie if you’re going to use a number at least separate it from the others, like
1.21-1= 0.21
;-)
Roffffl you’re pure evil
I have seen people just add '9’s to it, so to not upgrade the minor, so 2.6.997 gets 2.6.9997 and so on
Some people cannot math.
Wow a little bit of math is a dangerous thing
AI slop bbyyyyyyy!!!
Weak humans would use 250 million years, strong AI can slop it in 1 year.

And here I was holding my breath for the legendary 0.0.7899999999998766. Thanks for ruining all my dreams.
