it assumes single file. the current best practice at the moment is to
have custom code in your script or in upgrade which does the
concatenating of 1-2 and 2-3 into 1-3.

obviously we'd like this to happen automatically, but since people can
call their versions whatever they want - 0.1, 0.2 0.3 or cat, dog,
badger, it gets a bit complicated.
