      Description

      The class VersionComparator imported from org.sonatype.nexus.common.app use GenericVersion from org.eclipse.aether.util.version. When method compareTo compare two versions, it compare them item by item, and when it is two numbers, it compare them as String and not as Number (you can see it in code here).

      In example if you have a version 0.9.0, it is considered as greater than 0.10.0. And tests in VersionComparatorTest does not detect it.
