--bump-version flag help

[awatterson22]

Hi, does anyone know if it is possible to set types like:

{ message = "^doc*", group = "<!-- 3 -->📚 Documentation"},

and have it be included in your changelog, but skip it in terms of if the version should be bumped? I use --bumped-version to check if the version has been changed and if so create a release, but would like to skip release for documentation changes and other scopes

This is currently not possible. There isn't an integration between the commit parsers and the bump functionality yet.

Maybe we could add a new configuration option such as bump = true/false and you could tweak the behavior using that.

I did see that there was this field: no_increment_regex, but it doesn't seem to work for this example commit: doc: update for .... with this as my config: no_increment_regex = "doc|perf|refactor|style|test|ci|security|revert|other" unless I add -l to the --bumped version command. When running a release pipeline, the changelog is added with a commit: chore(release): updating changelogs with git-cliff [ci skip] and then tagged so I think it is being ignored when comparing version changes and then bumps the version anyway. Is there a way to ignore chore(release) in the changelog but allow it to be used for version bumping?
