@cindex Auto Update Mode
This determines the method using for auto-generating new builds new releases are
available - in other words, adding a new Build Version line to the metadata.
This happens in conjunction with the 'Update Check Mode' functionality - i.e.
when an update is detected by that, it is also processed by this.
Valid modes are:
@itemize
@item
@code{None} - No auto-updating is done
@item
@code{Version} - Identifies the target commit (i.e. tag) for the new build based
on the given version specification, which is simply text in which %v and %c are
replaced with the required version name and version code respectively.
For example, if an app always has a tag "2.7.2" corresponding to version 2.7.2,
you would simply specify "Version %v". If an app always has a tag "ver_1234"
for a version with version code 1234, you would specify "Version ver_%c".
Additionally, a suffix can be added to the version name at this stage, to
differentiate F-Droid's build from the original. Continuing the first example
above, you would specify that as "Version +-fdroid %v" - "-fdroid" is the suffix.
