Semantic Versioning macOS Build

[ahousseini]

What would you like to be added:

The macOS Build has not a proper version for CFBundleVersion and CFBundleShortVersionString since the v5.0.2 release. Is there a chance to change it back like it was before?

At the moment the CFBundleVersion key is 5.0.2-latest.20210705.2.20210705.2 and CFBundleShortVersionString is 5.0.2-latest.20210705.2. Correct versioning would be 5.0.2 for CFBundleShortVersionString and 20210705.2 for CFBundleVersion.

Apple does provide some informations here:

• https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/information_property_list/cfbundleshortversionstring
• https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/information_property_list/cfbundleversion
• https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/technotes/tn2420/_index.html

Why is this needed:

I use AutoPkg to automtically feed our internal patch management and a correct semantic versioning is much more easier to maintain.

Hi, thanks for the report, this is something we'd like to fix but there are some blocking issues at the moment.
