FAQPage Schema
How do I automate semantic versioning based on Git commit history?▼

Automated semantic versioning analyzes your Git commit history since the last tag to detect breaking changes, features, or fixes. It then recommends and applies the correct MAJOR, MINOR, or PATCH version bump and updates your project files accordingly.

How do I generate a changelog from Git commit messages?▼

Generating a changelog from commit messages is handled by analyzing Git history since the last tag. The tool categorizes detected features and bug fixes to assist in compiling structured changelog entries for your new release.

Can I automatically update package.json and create a Git tag for a release?▼

Yes, you can update package.json and create a Git tag automatically. When a version bump is applied, the version field in package.json is updated and a corresponding semantic version Git tag is created for the repository.

How does semantic versioning determine if a MAJOR, MINOR, or PATCH bump is needed?▼

Semantic versioning determines the necessary bump by analyzing commit history. It detects breaking changes for MAJOR bumps, new features for MINOR bumps, and bug fixes for PATCH bumps to recommend the appropriate version increment.

Do I need an existing Git repository to use this version bumping tool?▼

Yes, an existing Git repository with commit history is required. The tool functions by analyzing commits since your last Git tag to calculate the semantic version bump and apply the updates to package.json.
