## 10. Update the version number for the next release
Increment the `MAXSCALE_VERSION_PATCH` value in the `VERSIONxx.cmake` file
in the source root where `xx` is the major and minor release number. For
example, with 2.2 releases, update the `VERSION22.cmake` file.
If the `MAXSCALE_BUILD_NUMBER` is not 1, set it to 1. This is only
incremented if the packages have to be rebuilt after a release has been
made.
Make sure the `VERSION.cmake` points to the latest `VERSIONxx.cmake` file
so that updates in older releases won't affect newer releases.
