Editions and revisions:
An edition may change when substantial text is added or re-written, or when the structure of the text is changed. Currently 2nd edition
A revision may consist of several small updates and typo fixes 2nd edition, revision 1 will be the next revision published
The above interpretations of "revision" and "edition" feel natural to me based on my experience. However, searching yields conflicting information:
What is the difference between edition and revision? Revising is making structural and logical changes to your text—reformulating arguments and reordering information. Editing refers to making more local changes to things like sentence structure and phrasing to make sure your meaning is conveyed clearly and concisely.
While this makes me think that a "revision" is the major version change and "edition" is the small change, other sources use terms like "revised edition" for a small change and "second edition" for major changes.
Not going to use Mike. Will put version information in About page and use script to check it increases on pull request
