Versioning
RNP follows the semantic versioning syntax.
Checking versions
The output of rnp --version
contains the git
hash of
the version the binary was built from, which value is generated when
cmake
runs. Consequently, a release tarball generated with make
dist
will contain this hash version.
Historic information
The first version of rnp started at 0.8.0
to indicate its development
completeness (or lack thereof).
RNP originated as an attempt to modernize the NetPGP codebase originally created by Alistair Crooks of NetBSD in 2016. RNP has been heavily rewritten, and carries minimal if any code from the original codebase.
