FAQPage Schema

How do I automate the release process for n98-magerun2?▼

This Skill automates the complete release workflow by parsing git logs to compute the next semantic version, updating APP_VERSION and version.txt, generating CHANGELOG.md entries, and executing the release-it tool to publish the new version.

What does semantic versioning mean and why use it for releases?▼

Semantic versioning (SemVer) is a standardized versioning scheme that communicates breaking changes, new features, and bug fixes through version numbers (major.minor.patch). This Skill computes the next SemVer automatically from git history to ensure consistent, meaningful version increments across releases.

Can I use this workflow with my existing Git-based release process?▼

Yes. This Skill integrates with Git-based workflows by reading your git log history, updating version files and documentation, and invoking release-it. It consolidates versioning, changelog maintenance, and build tooling into a repeatable, automated pipeline.

What files does the release process update?▼

The Skill updates APP_VERSION in PHP source files, version.txt, and CHANGELOG.md with release notes derived from your git history. It then triggers release-it to complete the publication step.

Do I need to manually write changelog entries for each release?▼

No. This Skill automatically generates CHANGELOG.md entries by parsing your git log, eliminating manual changelog maintenance and ensuring your documentation stays in sync with actual changes.
