Description

How do we want to employ semantic versioning for this library?

Thrust for instance updates the release version by hand by setting new values in thrust/version.h.

This is required if we opt for versioned inline namespaces to solve #189.

Research direction

Start by reading the semantic-versioning question and the linked Thrust version.h example, then review issue #189 to understand why versioned inline namespaces matter. The issue needs a decided versioning approach and a documented way to update release values before implementation can be considered done.
