prerelease inside the build??

How did we end up with prerelease inside the build?
We are using Semver for Composer and 2.0.13+0alpha isn't Semver.
Am I missing something?

seems like a valid semver to me:
https://semver.org/

<valid semver> ::= <version core>
                 | <version core> "-" <pre-release>
                 | <version core> "+" <build>
                 | <version core> "-" <pre-release> "+" <build>
                ```

I know pre-release can have build, but can a build contain pre-release?

I'm not sure I understand the question? Both release and pre-release are types of builds - they are just marked in regards to lifecycle of releases.

I meant that according to semver specifications <version core> "-" <pre-release> "+" <build> is a valid semve-version but <version core> "+" <build> "-" <pre-release> is not.

My bad 2.0.13+0alpha is a valid semver version.
