+<p>Since "1.10.0" is smaller than "1.9.0" when considered as ASCII strings,
+scripts that compare Subversion versions as strings may fail to correctly
+determine which of "1.10.0" and "1.9.0" is the more recent one.  Such
+scripts should be changed to compare Subversion version numbers correctly:
+as tuples of integers, with an optional suffix for development or pre-release
+versions.  See
+<a href="/docs/community-guide/releasing#release-numbering"
+>the Subversion release numbering documentation</a>
+for details.  (Programs written against the C API or the various bindings
