[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #55829] prosposal: marking dev versions in DESCRIPTION

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #55829 (project octave):

This is the canonical description of Octave's current version scheme

* https://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/file/@/etc/HACKING.md#l300

Note to future selves: the line number anchor is not reliable, but my intent
is to point to the "Release Numbering" heading.

I would not recommend following *all* of Octave's version scheme for Octave
Forge packages, but rather something closer to SemVer <https://semver.org/>,
minus SemVer's special provision for pre-release suffixes.
