def msi_conformant_version():
    '''
    An msi installer uninstalls/replaces a lower "internal version" of itself.
    "internal version" is ivMAJOR.ivMINOR.ivBUILD with max values 255.255.65535.
    Using the build nr allows continuous integration of the installer.
    "Display version" is indipendent and free format: Year.Month.Bugfix as in Salt 2016.11.3.
    Calculation of the internal version fields:
        ivMAJOR = 'short year' (2 digits).
        ivMINOR = 20*(month-1) + Bugfix
            Combine Month and Bugfix to free ivBUILD for the build number
            This limits Bugfix < 20.
            The msi automatically replaces only 19 bugfixes of a month, one must uninstall manually.
        ivBUILD = git commit count (noc)
            noc for tags is 0, representing the final word, translates to the highest build number (65535).

    Examples:
      git checkout    Display version      Internal version    Remark
      develop         2016.11.0-742        16.200.742          The develop branch has bugfix 0
