Personally, I wrote this script[1] helper:

#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/env PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin \
"$( ( commands=$(find /usr/bin /usr/local/bin \
-name "${0##*/}"'-[0-9][0-9]' -print)
[ -n "$commands" ] ||
commands=$(printf "%s" "${0##*/}")
printf "%s\n" "$commands"
) | sort -Vr | sed 1q )" $(printf "%s" "$*" |
tr -d '\\\n`;$()')

the way it works is that I have a ~/bin directory added to my path, and
inside of it I symlink this script to ~/bin/clang-format,
~/bin/scan-build, ~/bin/scan-view etc. The script uses zeroth argument
to determine which program to run. The "version" (the part after "-" in
the regular program name, eg. "17" for clang-format-17) will be the
largest version according to version sort (`sort -V`).
