This folder contains the base, or "anchor" commit for each Positron version. Patch versions are computed relative to the anchor commit.

For example, Positron version 2022.10.0-456 is 456 commits past the commit stored in 2022.10.0.commit.

To create a new Positron version, do the following:

1. Change positronVersion in the product.json file at the root of the repository
2. From a shell, run ./versions/create-anchor.js to create a new anchor .commit file
3. Commit the change to product.json and the new .commit file
