Version Bump Skill

Use this skill when bumping the version of rhusky.

How to Bump Version

1. Edit Cargo.toml and update the version field
2. Run cargo update --workspace to update Cargo.lock
3. Commit with message: chore(version): bump X.Y.Z -> A.B.C

Version Types

• patch: Bug fixes, minor improvements (0.0.1 -> 0.0.2)
• minor: New features, backward compatible (0.1.0 -> 0.2.0)
• major: Breaking changes (1.0.0 -> 2.0.0)

What NOT to Do

• Do NOT use cog bump - it creates local tags which conflict with the CI workflow that creates tags after tests pass
• Do NOT create git tags manually - CI creates tags after merge
• Do NOT push to remote - the user must push manually

Workflow

1. Edit Cargo.toml version field
2. Run cargo update --workspace
3. Stage changes: git add Cargo.toml Cargo.lock
4. Commit: git commit -m "chore(version): bump X.Y.Z -> A.B.C"
5. Push the branch or create a PR
6. Merge to main
7. CI detects version change, creates tag, publishes release

Checking Current Version

# Get version from Cargo.toml
grep '^version' Cargo.toml

After Bumping

After committing the bump, verify:

git log -1 --oneline
git diff HEAD~1 --stat

Then push when ready:

git push origin <branch>
