+  # The version is computed on the fly and written to `version.properties` for the build
+  # only — it is NOT committed:
+  #   - versionName: the planned release version (without the `-rc-N` suffix)
+  #   - versionCode: via release-toolkit's `ContinuousBuildCodeFormatter`,
+  #                  i.e. `(major * 10 + minor) * 1_000_000 + BUILDKITE_BUILD_NUMBER`
