I have this project that I’ve released a version of using GitHub releases, the version number is v1.0.1-alpha.1 which is compatible with semantic versioning. I’ve noticed that CircleCI did not build that version but it did build v0.2.2. Please note that none of them is marked as “pre-release” so supposedly they both should build.

Please advise.
