The command standard-version --release-as ${select}
is likely part of a process in a software development workflow using the standard-version
tool.
standard-version
is a tool used for automating versioning and generating release notes for a project. It follows the semantic versioning scheme (major.minor.patch) and can increment the version based on the changes made since the last release.
In the given command, the ${select}
variable is used as an argument to specify the type of release to be generated. The value of ${select}
could be a specific version number (e.g., 1.2.3
) or a keyword representing the type of release.
For example, possible values for ${select}
could be:
major
: For a major version update (e.g., from 1.0.0 to 2.0.0), indicating significant changes or new features that may introduce breaking changes.minor
: For a minor version update (e.g., from 1.2.0 to 1.3.0), indicating the addition of new features or enhancements.patch
: For a patch version update (e.g., from 1.2.3 to 1.2.4), indicating bug fixes or small updates that do not introduce new features.
When this command is executed, standard-version
will analyze the changes made since the last release, generate the release notes, and increment the version based on the provided ${select}
value. The tool usually updates the version in the project's configuration file (e.g., package.json) and creates a new commit or tag indicating the release.
Note: The exact behavior and configuration of standard-version
can vary based on the project setup.
