Can't seem to run a build task in the right hook

[simonsmith]

Hi,

I'm trying to execute a gulp task that will compile some CSS files for me. One thing it does is insert a banner into the built file with a reference to the current version in the package.json. I'd like to run this task just after mversion has updated package.json but before it creates the tag and commits it.

It seems wherever I put the gulp task in the hooks it always creates the tag and commits it before the gulp task runs.

Updated to new version: v0.7.0
Updated package.json
Updated bower.json
<-- I want to run my task here
Commited to git and created tag 0.7.0

I've installed latest master because I thought #26 might solve it for me, but no joy. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Hey, did you ever get this to work by chance?

I would love this feature too.

You cant put the build tasks in the 'preupdate' or 'precommit' hooks either,

because then mversion will tell me that the index is dirty.

The only workaround I've come up with is to put the build task in the preupdate hook like this:

{
  "scripts": {
    "preupdate": "gulp build; git commit -am 'Build scripts'"
  }
}

Which of course results in 2 commits for a version bump, which could be avoided.

Maybe we can add a files section in the .mversionrc which can be added to a version bump:

{
  "files": {
    "script": "build/my-built-file.js"
  },
}
