I liked Daniel Johnson's simplified version bumper guide so I modified the
instruction in the comments to use that instead! Original mail: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2008-11/0019.html

# passing -version-info 3:12:1 sets current to 3, revision to 12, and age to
# 1.
#
-# If either revision or age are omitted, they default to 0. Also note that age
-# must be less than or equal to the current interface number.
-#
-# Here are a set of rules to help you update your library version information:
-#
-# 1.Start with version information of 0:0:0 for each libtool library.
-#
-# 2.Update the version information only immediately before a public release of
-# your software. More frequent updates are unnecessary, and only guarantee
-# that the current interface number gets larger faster.
-#
-# 3.If the library source code has changed at all since the last update, then
-# increment revision (c:r+1:a)
-#
-# 4.If any interfaces have been added, removed, or changed since the last
-# update, increment current, and set revision to 0. (c+1:r=0:a)
-#
-# 5.If any interfaces have been added since the last public release, then
-# increment age. (c:r:a+1)
-#
-# 6.If any interfaces have been removed since the last public release, then
-# set age to 0. (c:r:a=0)
-#
+# Here's the simplified rule guide on how to change -version-info:
+# (current version is C:R:A)
+#
+# 1. if there are only source changes, use C:R+1:A
+# 2. if interfaces were added use C+1:0:A+1
+# 3. if interfaces were removed, then use C+1:0:0

# The -no-undefined flag is CRUCIAL for this to build fine on Cygwin.
