: This flag is used to specify that this is the initial release of the project. It triggersstandard-version
to set the version number to1.0.0
(or any other initial version defined in the tool's configuration) and automatically generate appropriate release notes and tags.
When this command is executed, it typically performs the following actions:
- Updates the project's version number to the specified initial version (e.g.,
1.0.0
). - Generates release notes for this initial release, containing information like features, bug fixes, and improvements.
