It is considered safe to jump between patch versions and minor versions within
one major version. For example, it is safe to:
-* Upgrade the patch version:
- * `8.9.0` -> `8.9.7`
- * `8.9.0` -> `8.9.1`
- * `8.9.2` -> `8.9.6`
-* Upgrade the minor version:
- * `8.9.4` -> `8.12.3`
- * `9.2.3` -> `9.5.5`
+- Upgrade the patch version:
+ - `8.9.0` -> `8.9.7`

+- Upgrade the minor version:
+ - `8.9.4` -> `8.12.3`
+ - `9.2.3` -> `9.5.5`
Upgrading the major version requires more attention.
We cannot guarantee that upgrading between major versions will be seamless. As previously mentioned, major versions are reserved for backwards incompatible changes.
