Dune determines a package's version by looking at the ``version`` field in the
|
|
:doc:`/reference/dune-project/package`. If the version field isn't set,
|
|
it looks at the toplevel ``version`` field in the ``dune-project`` field. If
|
|
neither are set, Dune assumes that we are in development mode and reads the
|
|
version from the VCS, if any. The way it obtains the version from the VCS is
|
|
described in :ref:`the build-info section <build-info>`.
|
|
|
|
When installing the files of a package on the system, Dune
|
|
automatically inserts the package version into various metadata files
|
|
such as ``META`` and ``dune-package`` files.
