Questions about version.plist

I've read the page on software distribution at
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/
SoftwareDistribution/Concepts/sd_pkg_version_info.html> which discusses
how installer uses the version.plist file.
What I cannot seem to find is some documentation of the semantics or
intended usage of BuildVersion and SourceVersion.
For example, typically CFBundleVersion is usually a build number that
is always increasing (e.g. 234) and CFBundleShortVersionString is
usually the marketing or user-visible version number (e.g. 1,0.1).
It's not immediately obvious what BuildVersion and SourceVersion are
meant to track, but it seems like I should know since the installer
will use them when determining what files need to be updated on future
installs of my product.
Can someone shed some light on this?
Thanks,
Dave
