Interactivly get the next semantic version based on your latest git version tag and your last commits:

That's it!

You can now review which version you are at, based on the latest git-tag.

After that, you can decide how you want your next version to be by entering one of the following commands:

The output will be safed into a VERSION file.

Motivation

Write programs that do one thing and do it well. Unix philosophy

I tried conventional commits with a tool that generates the next version. I did not like conventional commits after all since they are for machines, not humans.

I wanted a tool that just bumps my version based on my git. But all of the tools out there are fully featured and highly specialized tools that do a bunch of stuff. For example:

• mroth/bump Can only be used with GitHub repos.
• sindresorhus/np For publishing NPM packages.
• thenativeweb/get-next-version Uses conventional commits.
• c4urself/bump2version For Python.

So bumpi does just one thing and that's it. :)
