I was wondering whether we should bump the version in develop straight after a release. The reason I am saying this
is that the git develop build says “6.03.2”, and it’s not that version anymore. Should it say 6.04? 6.04 beta?

But the numbers have not changed or have they? Do I need -DBETA or something?

With -DBETA, there’s a beta in front, but the version is still old. I think it might be a good idea to
bump it.

I've seen practices where only released version have a non beta or
snapshot name attached, and all current ongoing development has the
beta or snapshot appended.  My thought is:

* we should get rid of -DBETA.  I don't think it makes sense to have
this be a configuration time thing, as it's really a marker of the
state of the source code/release.  (In a sense, we could say the
develop and features branches are always beta).

* Development branch should always have a beta version name.  This
could be something like 6.04.0-beta.

* The only branches to have a non-beta release name would be master
and the release branches.

If we followed this practice, we would have develop be 6.04.0-beta
now. When we started the release, we'd update that to just 6.04.0 for
the release process.  After the release, the  master branch would have
6.04.0 and the develop branch would move on to 6.05.0-beta. Hotfix
branches then would be the only ones to bump the final part of the
version number, i.e. 6.04.1.  To me, this encapsulates what we're
doing pretty well, in that the develop has work for the next complete
version of Csound.
