Version in commit message

[strarsis]

Is it possible to use new version in commit message, too? Is there a callback or variable/property from gulp-bump I can use?

I've had the exact same question and resolved using semver.

using the example from README

// dependencies
var gulp = require('gulp'),
    git = require('gulp-git'),
    bump = require('gulp-bump'),
    filter = require('gulp-filter'),
    tag_version = require('gulp-tag-version'),
    semver = require('semver');

/**
 * Bumping version number and tagging the repository with it.
 * Please read http://semver.org/
 *
 * You can use the commands
 *
 *     gulp patch     # makes v0.1.0 → v0.1.1
 *     gulp feature   # makes v0.1.1 → v0.2.0
 *     gulp release   # makes v0.2.1 → v1.0.0
 *
 * To bump the version numbers accordingly after you did a patch,
 * introduced a feature or made a backwards-incompatible release.

function inc(importance) {
    var version = semver.inc(require('./package.json').version, importance)

    // get all the files to bump version in
    return gulp.src(['./package.json', './bower.json'])
        // bump the version number in those files
        .pipe(bump({type: importance}))
        // save it back to filesystem
        .pipe(gulp.dest('./'))
        // commit the changed version number
        .pipe(git.commit('bumps package version ' + version))

        // read only one file to get the version number
        .pipe(filter('package.json'))
        // **tag it in the repository**
        .pipe(tag_version());
}

gulp.task('patch', function() { return inc('patch'); })
gulp.task('feature', function() { return inc('minor'); })
gulp.task('release', function() { return inc('major'); })
