GitVersion

A helper for bumping versions via git tags.

Usage

gitversion --prefix v bump patch

Only semver-style versions with optional prefix are supported at this time (major.minor.patch).

gitversion will filter all tags of the format <prefix><major>.<minor>.<patch>, sort them, and increment the requested field (patch in this example) on the largest version. It then tags the current revision with the result.

e.g.

> git tag
v1.2.3
v1.2.4

> gitversion --prefix v bump patch
Bumping patch for version 1.2.4
1.2.5

> git tag
v1.2.3
v1.2.4
v1.2.5

> gitversion --prefix v show
v1.2.5

Auto

Auto is a special field that will determine the proper field to bump based on the contents of the last commit message. It looks for anything matching:

[major] or [major bump]

[minor] or [minor bump]

Example:

> git tag
1.2.3
1.2.4

> git log -1
[minor] Added show, major, minor, and auto features

> gitversion bump auto
1.3.0

And will default to patch if none found or if the commit is already tagged.
