VerBump

Bash release tool that reads Conventional Commits to bump versions and write changelogs

Desktopfree

VerBump is a bash-only release tool for Git repositories that reads Conventional Commits to suggest the next semantic version, then writes the changelog, bumps version numbers across project files, tags the release, and pushes, with dry-run previews and an undo command. It supports tagging in place, cutting a release branch, or opening a GitHub pull request, and needs only git and jq with no Node.js toolchain. It targets developers who want a release workflow that works in any repository, not just Node.js projects.
