Question 11 of 21

1

Which statements about semantic versioning are correct? (2)

Select one or more of the following:

A versioning scheme following semantic versioning has exactly two numbers separated by

Semantic versioning introduces conventions about breaking changes and aim to make upgrade dependencies safe.

Explanation

Question 13 of 21

1
