Ensure that users upgrade their Unity Version Control (UVCS) clients correctly.

The UVCS server can reject clients that are older than the current version of the server.

To force a given build number, add the

ForceBuildNumberMatch

key to your

server.conf

file. This key admits the following values:

Value	Description
`true`	Requires exact build number matching so that any client or server that connects to the server must run exactly the same version.
`false`	Doesn't require a version match. This is the default value.
`<number>`	Rejects any connections from callers that run a version with a build number smaller than the `number` . For example, `<ForceBuildNumberMatch>800</ForceBuildNumberMatch>` means the server accepts any version equal to or larger than `800` .
