See 
https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Channel_and_Version_Requirements#Version_Number

To update the first three levels of the version number, edit just one 
file: indra/newview/VIEWER_VERSION.txt

That value is then propagated everywhere it needs to be (more places 
than it used to be, in fact).

The fourth level number can be set manually at build time by the 
'revision' environment variable; if that is not set, the build will try 
to use the Mercurial revision number of the current repo, or zero if it 
can't use that.
