contributor guide.

correctly trigger an upgrade.
In order to ensure the versions compare properly, the recommended
convention is to set :term:`PV` within the
recipe to "previous_version+current_version". You can use an additional
variable so that you can use the current version elsewhere. Here is an
example::
convention is to use a tilde (``~``) character as follows::
REALPV = "0.8.16-rc1"
PV = "0.8.15+${REALPV}"
PV = 0.8.16~rc1
This way ``0.8.16~rc1`` sorts before ``0.8.16``. See the
":ref:`contributor-guide/recipe-style-guide:version policy`" section in the
Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded Contributor Guide for more details about
versioning code corresponding to a pre-release or to a specific Git commit.
