Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?

Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/semver/semver/issues/424
From semver.md,
yet all of semver's releases prepend a
v.https://github.com/semver/semver/releases
semver.org correctly trims the prefix.

This is explained in https://github.com/semver/semver/issues/235. TL;DR: a "git tag" is not a semantic version.
@jwdonahue commented on GitHub (Jan 11, 2018):
CoolLib.1.0.0.pkg is not a semver string either, but it contains a semver substring. The spec doesn't address decoration/naming conventions. Initially, the spec did include a leading v and that was dropped fairly early on.
@jwdonahue commented on GitHub (Mar 25, 2018):
@variadico, SemVer addresses the syntax and semantics of a specific kind of version string. It says nothing about anything else on the page. If you go to https://semver.org/ you will not find any v's in front of any of the specifications version strings, nor are they used in any of the examples.
Unless you have further questions, please close this issue at your earliest possible convenience.
