Vergen
Generates version numbers automatically based of calendar dates and tags. This makes it suitable to for use in a continuous delivery or deployment context where a person manually generating version numbers is either unlikely or not useful.
Usage
Latest Version vergen latest
Examines the current tags on the Git repository and returns the latest tagged version.
Next Version vergen next
Examines the current tags on the Git repository and returns the next version.
Preview Version vergen preview
Creates a preview version
A preview version has the form $CommitID.$Branch.$Authority[-$Revision]. The $Revision in Preview Version is
optional and useful in cases where a nested resource needs a unique version. For example, if you are using vergen to
create tags for Docker images without committing during a development loop. Because the $Commit does not change your
tag names would be non-unique across subsequent runs. The $Revision mechanism allows some unique "data" to be appended
that would result in a unique version.
| Component | Description |
|---|---|
| CommitID | The Git SHA in long format |
| Branch | The Git branch name with non-alphanum chars converted to - |
| Authority | The person or system that generated the version |
