docs(releasing): correct PackageReference resolution behaviour#20
Merged
Conversation
The opening paragraph claimed [0.1.0,) is "floating" and that consumers pick up new versions automatically — both wrong. NuGet's PackageReference resolves to the LOWEST satisfying version, so a new release on the feed does nothing for consumers until they bump the range floor and refresh packages.lock.json. Also fixes the "Cross-repo testing cascade" promotion step which told consumers to revert pinned pre-release versions back to [0.1.0,) — that would re-resolve to 0.1.0, not 0.2.0. The correct move is to raise the floor to [0.2.0,) instead.

Same lesson from PlayerNexusTracker v0.1.2-test.1 propagated here.
[X.Y.Z,)is a range that resolves to the lowest satisfying version, not a floating reference. Promotion to a new stable needs an explicit floor bump.
