<p dir="auto">I was told at one point Electron would start using Semver after 1.0, but this release for example <a href="https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v1.0.2">https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v1.0.2</a> adds a lot of features, but as a patch instead of a minor if it was semver.</p>
<p dir="auto">I looked through the docs for any mention of what the version scheme is but didn't find any, so I think it would be useful if someone can explain what the electron version numbers mean now</p>
<p dir="auto">When developing apps for Electron I usually use <a href="https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-prebuilt">electron-prebuilt</a> with npm and a semver to track updates. This makes it easier for me to update to newer versions of Electron without worrying too much about my app breaking.</p>
<p dir="auto">However I just noticed that 1.0.2 was recently released and contained new features compared to 1.0.1, <a href="https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v1.0.2">https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v1.0.2</a> and not just bug fixes.</p>
<p dir="auto">Does this mean Electron isn't following semver? If so I'd like to know so I can start pinning the dependency.</p>
