Sort version numbers.

If a version starts with v, the v is ignored during sorting.

Return type: List
Returns: sorted list of versions with highest as last entry
Raises: ValueError – if the version does not comply with is_semantic_version()

Examples

>>> vers = [
...     "2.0.0",
...     "2.0.1",
...     "v1.0.0",
...     "v2.0.0-1-gdf29c4a",
... ]
>>> sort_versions(vers)
['v1.0.0', '2.0.0', 'v2.0.0-1-gdf29c4a', '2.0.1']
