+// Identifies this header as Bigfoot's fork of flatbuffers, and versions the
+// fork's own generated-code-affecting changes independently of the upstream
+// FLATBUFFERS_VERSION_* triplet above (which just tracks the upstream
+// version this fork is based on, and would still match an unforked, stock
+// flatbuffers install of the same version). Generated headers assert on
+// this - see GenFlatbuffersVersionCheck() in idl_gen_cpp.cpp - so building
+// Bigfoot-generated code against stock flatbuffers, or a differently
+// versioned Bigfoot fork, fails to compile immediately instead of silently
+// miscompiling. Bump this whenever a change here affects what generated
+// code assumes about this header (e.g. adding bigfoot_ref/bigfoot_ref_wrapper).
