What does "v" mean in mongo index

Viewed 1746

In mongodb, we can use db.collection.getIndexes() to get all indexes, output is something like:

[
    {
        "v" : 2,
        "key" : {
            "_id" : 1
        },
        "name" : "_id_",
        "ns" : "counters"
    }
]

Most properties are pretty self-explanatory except for "v", can't seem to find any documentation about this. Does any one know what "v" means here? Thank in advance.
