What happens when you find a bug in your library? Then every user 
has new work to do to merge the changes. With DUB you don't do a 
thing for patch versions in user code. _This provide a way to 
warn your users and make them upgrade_. This is the main interest 
of DUB.

You could use git submodule for that, but not everyone use git, 
and not everyone want to search commit logs for the right version.
