auto-semver-action allows you to easily determine the next version number.

Automatically determines the next semantic version number by using repository tags. Uses the commit messages to determine the type of changes in the repository.

Example of the release types that will be done based on a commit messages:

If commit messages didn't match below types specified default release type will be use.

#major, #premajor, #minor, #preminor, #patch, #prepatch, #prerelease

Optional Semver identifier for version (beta,alpha..).

Optional Increments a version for each commit (true,false).

Required Default semantic version release type. major, premajor, minor, preminor, patch, prepatch, or prerelease.

Required. Used to make API requests for looking existing tags. Pass in using secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN.
