General Feedback - Increment the least significant version number when there are changes

[RadixSeven]

What were you reviewing?

I was reviewing the NCPI Participant module.

Relevant Link:

https://nih-ncpi.github.io/ncpi-fhir-ig-2/module_participant.html

Feedback:

45 minutes after I made some comments, someone released major changes. The pages I'd commented on were completely different. However, the version number was the same, and I saw no commits in GitHub.

Suggested Improvements:

It would help communication if we update the least significant version number each time there is a change to the main branch. It would make sense to not report 0.1.0 as the version for two significantly different revisions. The easiest way is to increase to 0.1.1, 0.1.2, ... 0.1.123, ... etc, each time we make changes. Then, it could be clear that a comment is about version 0.1.32 and people could look at history to find the appropriate version.

Thanks for the feedback! I suspect that we were making updates to the IG as you were reviewing. As this version of the IG is still early, we haven't begun versioning, but it's something the group will need to think through.
