Also the dirty/-DEV stuff means "you have files changed and not committed in your repo" IE, the git hash is not the whole story, it's just the base. The "w" in your description is the number of commits after the tag that the version starts with.

RC1 is RC1
RC1-1 is the first commit after RC1
RC1-2 is the second commit after RC1

Etc.

Another thought:

There's nothing wrong with never reaching 1.0 or never reaching 2.0. Having a 2.0 of your app says "1.0 had serious architectural flaws" which isn't a bad thing, just a thing. RR surely has those, however they've been iterated over and are continuing to be iterated over before 1.0, so you can't really justify the 2.0 based on 1.0 being crap, because no one knows what 1.0 is exactly, just yet :-)

X.Y.Z

IE, play it as it comes. N commits and a Z increment, M Z increments and a Y increment, O Y increments and eventually go 1.0.0 :-)

Who knows when, and who cares, it'll be obvious when you get that far ;-)

OK thanks.
