An instance of 'Eq' is provided, which implements exact equality by first comparing the 'versionBranch' fields, followed by comparing the 'versionTags' fields. An instance of 'Ord' is also provided, which gives lexicographic ordering on the 'versionBranch' fields (i.e. 2.1 > 2.0, 1.2.3 > 1.2.2, etc.). This is expected to be sufficient for many uses, but note that you may need to use a more specific ordering for your versioning scheme. For example, some versioning schemes may include pre-releases which have tags @\"pre1\"@, @\"pre2\"@, and so on, and these would need to be taken into account when determining ordering. In some cases, date ordering may be more appropriate, so the application would have to look for @date@ tags in the 'versionTags' field and compare those. The bottom line is, don't always assume that 'compare' and other 'Ord' operations are the right thing for every 'Version'. Similarly, concrete representations of versions may differ. One possible concrete representation is provided by the 'Show' and 'Read' instances, but depending on the application a different concrete representation may be more appropriate. -} data Version = Version { versionBranch :: [Int], -- ^ The numeric branch for this version.
