\* The official release date for this new format of release notes is May 15th, 2024. Historical release notes for prior dates may not reflect all available features released earlier this year or their tenancy availability.

## January 2025
- **Enhancement**: The [`dbt_version` format](/reference/commands/version#versioning) in dbt Cloud now better aligns with [semantic versioning rules](https://semver.org/). Leading zeroes have been removed from the month and day (`YYYY.M.D+<suffix>`). For example:
- New format: `2024.10.8+996c6a8`
- Previous format: `2024.10.08+996c6a8`

## December 2024

## Versioning
To learn more about release versioning for dbt Core, refer to [How dbt Core uses semantic versioning](/docs/dbt-versions/core#how-dbt-core-uses-semantic-versioning).

If using a [dbt Cloud release track](/docs/dbt-versions/cloud-release-tracks), which provide ongoing updates to dbt, then `dbt_version` represents the release version of dbt in dbt Cloud. This also follows semantic versioning guidelines, using the `YYYY.MM.DD+<suffix>` format. The year, month, and day represent the date the version was built (for example, `2024.10.28+996c6a8`). The suffix provides an additional unique identification for each build.
