Re: what is bumpversion used for?

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.

Hi Max,

I asked before and now we have https://gerrit.osmocom.org/4127 so let me ask again:

What is bumpversion used for in your 'make release' setup? I would expect version bumping to be a human choice. How is it intended to work?
