dotnet gitversion tool: can be installed via: dotnet tool install -g gitversion.tool usage: gotnet gitversion
In the root directory there is a .ps1 file where all git commands are defined The git commands simulate a git flow with creating feature branches merging and setting tags If you want to test another use case oder branches then change this file.
This shows the defined flow which is executed via the testGitVersion.ps1 It can be modified using VS and drawio extension.
Adjust it to your usecase and make sure that it has the same flow as defined in testGitVersion.ps1
Copy the folder 'GitVersionTestFolderTemplate' and adjust the GitVersion.yml in the copied version to your testcase. Navigate with the console into the new directory and execute the powershell command like this: './../testGitVersion.ps1'
Then all the steps will be executed. After each step a new version overview of giversion is generated and saved in a docu.md file in this direcoty.
If you want to do another test with a different GitVersion.yml repeate the steps and compare the docu.md files
In testGitVersion.ps1 you can also define the output properties if you do not want all to be saved in the docu.md file
