 """"""""""
 Versions of this library are identified by a triplet of integers with the form  ``<major>.<minor>.<patch>``, for example 3.0.4. A release of ``zarr-python`` is associated with a new
 version identifier. That new identifier is generated by incrementing exactly one of the components of the previous version identifier by 1. When incrementing the ``major``
-component of the version identifier, the ``minor`` and ``patch`` components are set to 0.
+component of the version identifier, the ``minor`` and ``patch`` components is reset to 0. When incrementing the minor component, the patch component is reset to 0.
 
 Releases are classified by the library changes contained in that release. This classification determines which
 component of the version identifier is incremented on release.
