> > What I now understand is that arbitrary qualifiers are not considered
_after_ `GA`. Following example: I need to fork commons-io 2.12.0 for the
company and it will be named `2.12.0-company-1` through `2.12.0-company-5`. I
would expect that those come _after_ the GA because I had to apply custom
patches.

Right, according to SemVer my approach is wrong. Thanks for the
clarification.

> Since I know that ComparableVersion was brought to Maven from
> versions-maven-plugin, it turns out the bug described here:
> https://github.com/mojohaus/versions-maven-plugin/issues/744
> also exists in maven, at least in 3.8.3.
> According to the maven version spec, versions containing a qualifier should
> be treated as less major than the same versions without the qualifier.
> Currently it's only the case for a few "standard" qualifiers, e.g. "-rc*",
> "-alpha", etc.
> However, it looks like "2.3-pfd" is deemed less major than "2.3".
> {code:java}
> @Test
> public void testComparableVersionWithCustomQualifier()
> {
> assertThat( new ComparableVersion( "2.3" ).compareTo( new
> ComparableVersion( "2.3-pfd" ) ),
> greaterThan( 0 ) );
> }
> {code}
