Conventional Commits Versioner

ccv does one thing: it walks git commit history back from the current HEAD to find the most recent tag, taking note of commit messages along the way. When it reaches the most recent tag, it uses the commit messages it saw to figure out how the tag should be incremented, and prints the incremented tag.

ccv is intended for use in continuous delivery automation.

The ideas behind ccv are described by Conventional Commits and Semantic Versioning. Currently parts 1 to 3 of the Conventional Commits specification summary are recognized when incrementing versions.

For a full example, see the tag-release workflow in this repository.

	git tag $(ccv)

ccv takes no arguments or options*.

Prior art

• caarlos0/svu does pretty much the same thing, but it has more features and shells out to git. ccv uses go-git/go-git instead.
