Can I use this for non-semantic versioning projects?

While optimized for semantic versioning, you can provide manual version arguments which the skill will normalize and apply to your release branch.

Does this skill push changes to the remote repository?

Yes, if a new release branch is created, the skill will automatically push the branch and the version bump commit to the origin.

How does the skill determine the next version number?

The skill can either accept a specific version as an argument or automatically calculate the next semantic version based on the repository's conventional commit history.

Which project files are updated during the version bump?

It identifies and updates common versioning files including package.json, Cargo.toml, and VERSION files based on the project's structure.

开发者工具

Automates the creation of GitFlow release branches including version normalization, file updates, and branch management.

The start-release skill streamlines the release phase of the GitFlow workflow by automating repetitive branch management tasks. It intelligently calculates semantic versions from conventional commits or normalizes user-provided inputs, creates the release branch from develop, and automatically updates version strings across project files like package.json or Cargo.toml. By standardizing the release initiation process, it ensures consistent versioning, prepares changelog templates, and reduces manual errors during the transition from development to production staging.
