Release tags¶

The data structure documented here for the NIRD storage location /projects/NS9039K/data/ is version controlled using GitHub. When significant changes are made to the data structure, the version number of the documentation will be updated and the version will be saved as a tag in GitHub.

This allows users to go back and look at the commits for previous versions of the documentation, by using the ‘tags’ tab on GitHub via a web browser.

The version number is of the format X.Y.Z, where X refers to a major version which has backward-incompatible changes, Y refers to a minor version with backward-compatible functionality, and Z is a minor patch or bug fix. This version is also visible at the top of the side bar of this documentation page.
