The first two tags in the project were named: v0.1 and v0.2.0 respectively.  From then on, we began using numeric tags, i.e., 1.0.0 .   We have been using this latter scheme for a while now and are now up to 4.0.0, and re-pushing tags to the remote repo would not be practical as many users have already pulled the repo.\r\n\r\n  I don't see that versioneer has any way to exclude certain tags (would want to exclude v0.1 and v0.2.0 in these cases) or only include numeric tags.  tag_prefix almost works, but appears to be a fixed string match.   We're currently at release 4.0.0, and I could set `tag_prefix = 4`, but this would break as soon as we move to another major version.  If blacklisting versions isn't an option, it might be nice to be able to filter by regex in a case like this.  For example, `tag_prefix_regex = [0-9]`"}}
