Use semantic versioning for services (for consistency with mediawiki core)
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

I'd like to unify the way we do release branches / tags and semantic versioning is a perfectly good way to do that. Since we already want to use semantic versioning in a few other places, I think we should use it for deployment tags (this depends on the new tooling currently in development and would replace the numeric tag identifiers used by trebuchet)

How does MediaWiki core fit into this? It does not use semver compliant versioning...
