Version Number Question

We use a version numbering scheme which is compatible with the AdvancedInstaller versions. That is, <major number>.<minor number>.<revision>, with an optional .<hot fix>. This seems to work fine. However, we use git to provide these releases via 'git describe'. This works in cases where we have ...

Uninstall

I created an installer which deletes the directory tree upon uninstall - AI_Uninstall.png . I also created a shortcut which invokes the Windows uninstall (msiexec /x).
