Maintenance

Whenever new official release come out, update the __version__ in package.py then re-run rez build --install.

If you decide to make another install, e.g. new commands() environment setup, you can instead just update the +local. version number to indicate new releases/versions of your own. See PEP 540 local version segments.

Also, you can rename +local. to something more relevant to you e.g. +mystudio. or +mygithubname.
