     """Normalize Mercurial version string so WiX accepts it.
 
-    Version strings have to be numeric X.Y.Z.
+    Version strings have to be numeric ``A.B.C[.D]`` to conform with MSI's
+    requirements.
+
+    We normalize RC version or the commit count to a 4th version component.
+    We store this in the 4th component because ``A.B.C`` releases do occur
+    and we want an e.g. ``5.3rc0`` version to be semantically less than a
+    ``5.3.1rc2`` version. This requires always reserving the 3rd version
+    component for the point release and the ``X.YrcN`` release is always
+    point release 0.
+
+    In the case of an RC and presence of ``+`` suffix data, we can't use both
+    because the version format is limited to 4 components. We choose to use
+    RC and throw away the commit count in the suffix. This means we could
+    produce multiple installers with the same normalized version string.
