The intent of %versionEdits was that it would only contain the edits that you want to be reported. I don't know how you are obtaining the version change information that you were using to populate $UpdatedMinor etc so I can't advise on how best to populate %versionEdits. If you have an original version number and a current version number you could do something like:

my @valueNames = qw/major minor revision/;
my @versions = (
    [qw(aht 8.3.6 9.4.0)],
    [qw(dog 3.3.1 3.3.2)],
    );

for my $version (@versions) {
    my ($app, $oldStr, $newStr) = @$version;
    my %old;
    my %new;

    @old{@valueNames} = split /\./, $oldStr;
    @new{@valueNames} = split /\./, $newStr;

    for my $name (@valueNames) {
        $oldVersions{$app}{$name} = $old{$name};
        next if $new{$name} == $old{$name};
        $versionEdits{$app}{$name} = $new{$name};
    }
}
