 Simplest way to do it automatically is to use your version control

 In CVS version 1.9 is followed by 1.10.  Since CPAN compares version
 numbers numerically we use a sprintf() to convert 1.9 to 1.009 and
 1.10 to 1.010 which compare properly.

+F<META.yml> is a module meta-data file pioneered by Module::Build and
+automatically generated as part of the 'distdir' target (and thus
+'dist').  See L<ExtUtils::MakeMaker/"Module Meta-Data">.

+To shut off its generation, pass the C<NO_META> flag to C<WriteMakefile()>.
