History

1. There was a single v0.9.0 module in this repo
2. Then it was split into 4 total v1.0.0 modules in this repo:
   • The top-level module:
     • module github.com/thepudds/nested-module-example
     • This was tagged v1.0.0
   • Three nested modules:
     • module github.com/thepudds/nested-module-example/contrib/nested1
     • module github.com/thepudds/nested-module-example/contrib/nested2
     • module github.com/thepudds/nested-module-example/contrib/nested3
     • These were tagged contrib/nested1/v1.0.0 and similar for nested2 and nested3
3. Then the 4 modules were moved to v2.0.0
   • The top-level module became:
     • module github.com/thepudds/nested-module-example/v2
     • This was tagged v2.0.0
   • The three nested modules became:
     • module github.com/thepudds/nested-module-example/contrib/nested1/v2
     • module github.com/thepudds/nested-module-example/contrib/nested2/v2
     • module github.com/thepudds/nested-module-example/contrib/nested3/v2
     • These were tagged contrib/nested1/v2.0.0 and similar for nested2 and nested3
4. Then the top-level module was moved to v2.0.2 with some example package doc links added to the contrib package.
