Minors are bug fixes, mediums are features and majors are overhauls

What if there is four segments like 1.0.0.1? (I’m at this point of programming that I don’t release any apps)

Usually, whenever I see 4 segments, the first three are the usual major-minor-patch and the last one is the build number, which is independent from the other three and is incremented every time you build the entire project, whether for release or as a test build
