It is human choice - you'll have to explicitly call "make release" to get the version
bumped.

What bumpversion does is helping to automate the boring details of it:
- determine current version (provided it matches the semver spec)
- pick next version number (according to semver spec)
- commit the changes to git
- tag the release commit

More details can be found in bumpversion manual.
