v3.6.0

This is a pretty big release with a HEAP of fixes. It has taken a little longer than we would have liked to get it out, mainly due to getting our Linux/Mac builds green.

We will be pushing a 4.0.0 build very shortly which will have some good GitFlow support improvements.

v3.5.4

This fixes a regression introduced in 3.5.3 where command line arguments were not parsed correctly.

• #866 -/updateassemblyinfo stopped working with 3.5.3 contributed by Pascal Berger (pascalberger)

v3.5.3

This fixes a number of bugs, and actually should have been a minor release because it has a new feature. You can now ignore part of history when running gitversion. This is handy when GitVersion is calculating the wrong version because of a badly named branch or something.

v3.4.1

Switched publishers

v3.4.0

3.4.0 is a pretty big release containing mostly bug fixes but a heap of little features and improvements to make it easier to get started and use GitVersion.

Highlights are:

• When GitVersion runs on buildservers which do not allow fetch, it gets the branchname from environmental variables to prevent a fetch by default. This should make it much easier to just grab GitVersion and get started. It also reduces the need for dynamic repositories.
• You can now use {BranchName} in your tag config. So for feature branches you could do alpha.{BranchName}
• Can rebuild tags now without errors on the build server
• Heaps of small commit counting/branch normalisation fixes
• GitVersion now caches results, this speeds up a number of scenarios
• Lots of small docs improvements to make things clearer
