Git-Bump-Version

A very simple git plugin to be able to bump versions as git tags.

Should only be using bash built-ins, with no external utilities, so should work on pretty much any platform, including cygwin.

Installation

Just dump the main file somewhere in your PATH, e.g.:

sudo wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wk8/git-bump-version/master/git-bump-version -O /usr/local/bin/git-bump-version && sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/git-bump-version # or anywhere else in your PATH

Usage

git bump-version             # bumps the patch version, e.g. 5.3.254 -> 5.3.255
git bump-version --patch     # also bumps the patch version, e.g. 5.3.254 -> 5.3.255
git bump-version --minor     # bumps the minor version, e.g. 5.3.254 -> 5.4.0
git bump-version --major     # bumps the major version, e.g. 5.3.254 -> 6.0.0
git bump-version --to 8.9.1  # sets the version to 8.9.1 (will error out if that version already exists)
