Subversion the software has *release* numbers - 1.4.0, 1.4.1, etc.

Your Subversion repository will only have positive integers as
*revision* numbers - 1, 2, 3 etc.

What you call the release 'number of your project is entirely up to
you;

Version 1.0.1.2.3.2.5
Release Friday-the-13th
Final mark 2

etc.
