How can I use Bumpversion for advanced versioning strategies?

Bumpversion allows you to customize versioning strategies using configuration files. What specific strategy are you considering?

I want to implement semantic versioning with pre-release tags.

You can achieve that by setting the version format in your .bumpversion.cfg file. Would you like a sample configuration?

Yes, please provide a sample configuration for semantic versioning.

Here's a sample:

[bumpversion]
current_version = 1.0.0

[bumpversion:part:release]
first = 0

[bumpversion:part:pre_release]
first = 0

[metadata]
version = {current_version}

This will allow you to bump versions with pre-release tags.

That looks great! How do I bump the version using the command line?

You can use the command bumpversion pre_release to bump the pre-release version. Would you like to know more about other commands?
