I’ve spent a few hours today playing with MSBuild to implement an auto-incrementing version number system. Take a look at this picture and descriptions to decipher the new version numbers:

Red: Represents the revision, which goes up by one each time FATXplorer is built/debugged.

Black: Represents the year in which FATXplorer was built.

Blue: Represents the month in which FATXplorer was built.

Green: Represents the day on which FATXplorer was built.

Yellow: Represents the hour on which FATXplorer was built.

Pink: Development branch string. Will vary depending on the progress of the version.

That’s all there is to it.
