verify-global-settings-version

The global settings version verification process reads the VERSION file from both the current branch and origin/main, then reports whether a version bump is present and if it matches the expected semver increment based on directory changes.

You need to check for a semver increment in global settings files whenever you modify any files within the global-settings/ directory. This validation step is required before creating a PR on the repository to ensure version consistency.

Yes, the global settings version checker compares the VERSION file in your current branch against the origin/main branch. It uses this comparison to report whether a proper version bump is present and matches the expected semver increment.

Your pull request fails the version consistency check because the global-settings/VERSION file was not correctly bumped after changes to the global-settings/ directory. The verification detects missing or incorrect semver increments before allowing a merge.
