### VCS Versioning
Composer uses your VCS's branch and tag features to resolve the version
constraints you specify in your `require` field to specific sets of files.
When determining valid available versions, Composer looks at all of your tags
and branches and translates their names into an internal list of options that
it then matches against the version constraint you've provided.
it then matches against the version constraint you provided.
For more on how Composer treats tags and branches and how it resolves package
version constraints, read the [versions](articles/versions.md) article.
