AutoVer 0.0.26

AutoVer

Notice: This project is currently in development and is not ready for use beyond experimentation.

AutoVer is a .NET CLI tool that is used for automating versioning of .NET projects.

The tool is meant to support the following capabilities:

• Auto version multiple project with different version numbers in a single git repository
• Specify Patch, Minor or Major version types
• Create git tags and GitHub releases
• Generate changelogs based on git commit messages as well as hand-written ones.

CI/CD

AutoVer could be used as part of your CI/CD workflow. The following is a sample GitHub Workflow to version a .NET project as well as create the CHANGELOG.md file.
