I don't much care how you choose to number your versions, as long as you publish release notes with it that say what has changed since the previous version. If I have to start poking around in the commit history of your GitHub project and trying to suss out how those commits correspond to published releases, I start to get a little irate.

This is an enormous pain in the ass with .NET NuGet packages, I have found, although I am sure it extends into other ecosystems as well.
