Hey
How does Deken compare versions? I noticed that Deken interprets:
1.1.1 > 1.1
and
0.1~git20170101 > 0.1
Looks similar to the output of the sort command. Is it actually simply an alphabetical sort?

Looks correct, no?

the "~" is a common trick (e.g. with Debian packages) for pre-release versions. my expectation would be:
- 0.0
- 0.1~git20170101
- 0.1
- 0.1+thistimeforreal
- 0.1.1
- 0.2
- 0.10

Ah, I didn't know that. Thanks IOhannes.

no. deken *tries* to do a semantic sort.
this is done using tcl's "lsort -dictionary" [1].
it correctly sorts 1.10 after 1.1.1 but might have some more problems (e.g. your 0.1~git20170101 > 0.1 example).
please file a bug-report, if you think this too annoying.

I think it is fine as long as we know with what we're dealing with, I guess.
