</span> An optional keyword (default value is 0) that must be used when a port is updated to a version that is numerically less than the previous version, for example 1.10 -> 1.2 or 20070928 -> 1.0.
Some Portfile authors have used large epoch values that look like a date, but there is no reason to do so.
The epoch is simply an unsigned integer, and the only requirement is that it never be decreased.
<span style='display:block; white-space:pre;background:#e0ffe0;'>+Remember that once set, it can never be removed because it takes precedence over version and revision.
