| 7 | As the image shows, the document version consists of two numbers, separated by a dot: <tt><Major>.<Minor></tt>. The XWiki versioning system allows the distinction between major and minor edits. When [editing a page>Features.PageEditing], the user has the option to decide whether his edit brings major or minor changes to the document. Saving a major version will increase the first component and reset the second to "1", while a minor version will just increase the second component. | ||
