Version Commit CLI

version-commit is a command-line tool (CLI) that automatically generates versions based on GitHub repository commits.

Installation

To install version-commit, run the following command:

``sh
npm install -g https://github.com/danilosoftwares/versionCommit.git
`

This will install the tool globally, allowing you to use it from anywhere in the terminal.

Usage

version-commit requires a GitHub token and the repository name to generate the version based on commits.

`

$3

- {token}: Your GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT), required for authentication and repository access.
- {repository}: The repository name in the format user/repo (e.g., danilosoftwares/ReactCapilar).
- {branch}: The branch name such as develop.

How It Works

1. version-commit accesses the specified repository and analyzes its commits.
2. Based on commit patterns (fix:, feat:, etc.), it generates a version following the Semantic Versioning (SemVer) standard.
3. The generated version is displayed in the terminal.

Example of Generated Version

If the latest commits are:
`sh
1.0.0: Initial release.
1.1.0: feat: Added new functionality, compatible with 1.0.0.
1.1.1: fix: Bug fix in 1.1.0.
2.0.0: BREAKING CHANGE: Incompatible API changes, breaking compatibility with 1.x.
`
The generated version might be 2.0.0 (depending on the versioning rules used).

GitHub Token Permissions

The provided token should have at least the following permissions:
- repo (for private repositories)
- public_repo (for public repositories)

What is Semantic Version ?

Semantic Versioning (SemVer) is a software version control scheme that uses a structure of three numbers separated by periods to indicate the nature of changes in a project: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. Each number has a specific meaning, indicating whether the changes are compatible or not with previous versions.

SemVer Structure and Rules:

MAJOR (Major Version):

Increments when incompatible changes are made to the software's API. This means that when updating to this new version, code that depends on the previous version may need to be modified to work correctly.

MINOR (Minor Version):

Increments when new functionality is added in a way that is compatible with previous versions. The existing API continues to work, but with additional features.

PATCH (Patch Version):

Increments when bug fixes or minor adjustments that do not change the API are made.

Example Commits:
`sh
1.0.0: Initial release.
1.1.0: feat: Added new functionality, compatible with 1.0.0.
1.1.1: fix: Bug fix in 1.1.0.
2.0.0: BREAKING CHANGE: Incompatible API changes, breaking compatibility with 1.x.
