- * 6 digits of version. The most significant are branch indicators at the
- * time when the last incompatible change was made (which is why it is
- * presently 6 on 7-current). The least significant digits are incremented
- * as described below. The format is similar to the __FreeBSD_version, but
- * not tied to it.
- *
- * DO NOT CASUALLY BUMP THIS NUMBER! The rules are not the same as shared
- * libs or param.h/osreldate.
- *
- * It is the version number of the protocol between config(8) and the
- * sys/conf/ Makefiles (the kernel build system).
- *
- * It is now also used to trap certain problems that the syntax parser cannot
- * detect.
- *
- * Unfortunately, there is no version number for user supplied config files.
- *
- * Once, config(8) used to silently report errors and continue anyway. This
- * was a huge problem for 'make buildkernel' which was run with the installed
- * /usr/sbin/config, not a cross built one. We started bumping the version
- * number as a way to trap cases where the previous installworld was not
- * compatable with the new buildkernel. The buildtools phase and much more
- * comprehensive error code returns solved this original problem.
- *
- * Most end-users will use buildkernel and the build tools from buildworld.
- * The people that are inconvenienced by gratuitous bumps are developers
- * who run config by hand. However, developers shouldn't gratuitously be
- * inconvenienced.
- *
- * One should bump the CONFIGVERS in the following ways:
- *
- * (1) If you change config such that it won't read old config files,
- * then bump the major number. You shouldn't be doing this unless
- * you are overhauling config. Do not casually bump this number
- * and by implication do not make changes that would force a bump
- * of this number casually. You should limit major bumps to once
- * per branch.
- * (2) For each new feature added, bump the minor version of this file.
- * When a new feature is actually used by the build system, update the
- * %VERSREQ field in the Makefile.$ARCH of all the affected makefiles
- * (typically all of them).
