Definition of Done

When a pull request is merged into main:

1. the version is updated in the source module manifest
2. the changelog is updated with the relevant updates
3. the changes are recorded in a "bump version to ___" commit
4. an annotated tag is set with the version as its title

Assumptions

GitVersion, git describe, or similar utility is able to determine the current version

Acceptance Criteria

• GIVEN a pull request has been merged into the main branch, WHEN the pull request contains non-breaking changes, THEN the version is updated by one in the minor field of the SemVer compatible version information

Tasks

• Configure GitVersion to update the version on main based on the "type" of pull request / branch name
• Create a set.prerelease-string to add a prerelease to the manifest #12
• Create a step.version task to bump the version of the project #11
• Rewrite the update.changelog task to use ChangelogManagement module, git cliff or the built in Changelog commands #89
