[Bug] Minor version increased instead of the prerelease tag

[mmisztal1980]

Describe the bug A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

Expected Behavior

I'm expecting the minor version to stay the same as the one dictated by the parent release/* branch. I'm not sure if this is due to using the minor-version-bump-message, however I was under the impression that the release/* branch behavior should override that?

Actual Behavior

dotnet giversion /diag yields:

• Create a release/* branch git checkout -B release/0.28
• Create a change and commit it using conventional commits' feat: something feature
• Run dotnet gitversion

Context

It has incremented the minor version on the release branch, ahead of the release branch's minor version

Are you able to reproduce this in a RepositoryFixture test?

[HHobeck]

I tried to reproduce this issue without any success. Thus I'm going to close it. Please reopen this bug or create a new one if you think this bug still persists.

Cheers!

  [Test]
  public void __Just_A_Test__()
  {
      var configuration = GitHubFlowConfigurationBuilder.New.WithSemanticVersionFormat(SemanticVersionFormat.Loose).Build();

      using var fixture = new EmptyRepositoryFixture("release/0.28");
      fixture.MakeACommit("+semver: patch");

      // ✅ succeeds as expected
      fixture.AssertFullSemver("0.28.0-beta.1+1", configuration);
  }

[HHobeck]

Okay I can confirm that this behavior is because of the +semver: patch message text. But I'm still not sure what the correct intension is:

[Test]
public void __Just_A_Test__()
{
    var configuration = GitHubFlowConfigurationBuilder.New
        .WithCommitMessageIncrementing(CommitMessageIncrementMode.Enabled)
        .WithSemanticVersionFormat(SemanticVersionFormat.Loose).Build();

    using var fixture = new EmptyRepositoryFixture("main");
    fixture.MakeACommit();
    fixture.BranchTo("release/0.28");
    fixture.MakeACommit("+semver: patch"); // <<---

    // ✅ expected: 0.28.0-beta.1+1 or 0.28.1-beta.1+1 ❔ 
    fixture.AssertFullSemver("0.28.1-beta.1+1", configuration);
}

[asbjornu]

Thanks for providing a reproduction, @HHobeck! It would be interesting to hear what @mmisztal1980 expects the version to be in that scenario.

[mmisztal1980]

as per my original post, I was expecting the MINOR version to remain constant and the patch to increase

[HHobeck]

The head line was saying something different. That's why I have asked: Minor version increased instead of the prerelease tag ;)

as per my original post, I was expecting the MINOR version to remain constant and the patch to increase

Maybe we need to agree on the naming convention first: If we have a version like 0.28.1-beta.2+3 then it means the following:

• Major: 0
• Minor: 28
• Patch: 1
• PreReleaseNumber: 2 and
• CommitsSinceVersionSource: 3

May I ask you again what would be your expecation in the scenario with commit message +semver: patch?

[Test]
public void __Just_A_Test__()
{
    var configuration = GitHubFlowConfigurationBuilder.New
        .WithCommitMessageIncrementing(CommitMessageIncrementMode.Enabled)
        .WithSemanticVersionFormat(SemanticVersionFormat.Loose).Build();

    using var fixture = new EmptyRepositoryFixture("main");
    fixture.MakeACommit();
    fixture.BranchTo("release/0.28");
    fixture.MakeACommit("+semver: patch"); // <<---

    // ✅ expected: 0.28.0-beta.1+1 or 0.28.1-beta.1+1 or 0.28.0-beta.2+1 ❔ 
    fixture.AssertFullSemver("0.28.1-beta.1+1", configuration);
}

[HHobeck]

The patch nuber increases like the author expecting it. I'm going to close this issue because it has beend solved already in version 6.x. Thank for reporting this issue.
