Revision history for Perl extension SemVer.

0.10.0  2020-05-09T13:58:26Z
      - Adopted the official regular expression from the SemVer FAQ for strict
        parsing by new(), as well as a modification of that regex for the more
        lenient cases supported by declare() and new(). This results in the
        following changes in the behavior of the parser:
        +   SemVers with build metadata but no prerelease are now valid, e.g.
            `1.1.2+meta`
        +   SemVers with a numeric-only prerelease part are no longer valid
            if that part has a leading zero, e.g., `1.2.3-123` is valid but
            `1.2.3-0123` is not
        +   Restored support for prerelease and build metadata parts are in
            declare() and parse()
      - Added tests for the official SemVer test corpus as linked under the
        FAQ about an official regular expression:
        https://semver.org/#is-there-a-suggested-regular-expression-regex-to-check-a-semver-string
      - Added explicit boolean overloading to ensure consistent behavior
        between different implementations of the version parent class.

0.7.0  2018-07-24T11:09:17Z
      - Implemented Semantic Versioning 2.0.0 specification
      - Updated tests for Semantic Versioning 2.0.0
      - added testing for Perl 5.24, 5.26, 5.28

0.6.0  2015-01-23T05:07:58Z
      - Removed tests that fail on version.pm 0.9910 and higher due to
        trailing decimal sign. Thanks to Andreas Koenig for the report and
        diagnosis.
      - Fixed vstring warning on Perl 5.8.
      - Now skip tests that fail with version::vpp.
      - Now skip test on version.pm 0.9911 that fails with that version.
      - Now skip failing tests on Perl 5.8 and version.pm less than 0.9909.
      - Removed all Pod tests from the distribution.

0.5.0  2013-04-02T06:57:06Z
      - The `new()` now throws an exception when a version string has a
        prerelease version with no preceding dash. This is keep its
        requirement for strictness consistent.
      - Fixed a bug where a SemVer object passed to `new()` did not properly
        clone the dash preceding a prerelease version.

0.4.0  2012-11-20T18:59:33Z
      - Updated the parsers to support an optional dash before the prerelease
        version, and `normal()` to always emit a dash for the prerelease
        version. This brings it in line with the final semver 1.0.0
        specification.

0.3.0  2011-05-26T04:54:50
      - Made leading zeros, such as the "04" in "1.04.3" illegal when parsing
        via `new()`.
      - Eliminated "Use of qw(...) as parentheses is deprecated" in the tests
        when running on Perl 5.14.

0.2.0  2010-09-17T17:59:57
      - Require Test::Pod 1.41 for testing POD because it supports
        `L<text|url>`.

0.1.0  2010-09-16T19:07:04
      - Initial version, created with lots of help and feedback from
        version.pm author John Peacock
