`rez bump` command?

[dbr]

I was going to write a small helper script to automate the process of releasing a new version, which for me involves:

• Check git log to check what commits have been made since last release (mostly to verify I haven't already bumped the version number)
• Edit the version string in package.py to, most often, just increase the minor version
• Check there are no uncommitted changes
• git add package.py && git commit -m "Bump version" && git push

..before running rez release. None of the steps are too hard on their own, but adds up to be a little tedious and accident prone (quite often I've forgotten to bump the version string as per #914)

Before I write this as a standalone script, is this something that could potentially be useful as part of rez itself? I'm unsure as seems like it could be useful, but also might be a little too workflow-specific to be in core rez?

I often use bumpversion to do this. So basically:

• Code
• Commit & Push
• Run bumpversion with the desired level (patch, minor, major)
• release

This also has the benefit of being able to update versions in multiple places if needed (e.g. in docs, or about boxes, resource files or the likes)

you might consider a pre-commit hook.

master=$(git show master:package.py | grep version | cut -d'"' -f 2)
current=$(git show HEAD:package.py | grep version | cut -d'"' -f 2)

if [ "$master" = "$current" ]; then
    echo "version bump required"
    exit 1
fi

it simply compares the 2 versions and errors if master matches your current branch

@instinct-vfx have you tried CMakes configure_file method for doing string substitution?

https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.2/command/configure_file.html

My Tool Version: @Version@

said file has the @Version@ token replaced with the value of Version

also for code you can get any packages version from the environment specifically REZ_(PKG)_VERSION

IMO this is outside the scope of rez. Both previous suggestions (separate bumpversion tool, pre-commit hook) sound like reasonable solutions.

Thx A

Yep agreed - thanks for the suggestions!
