This is a Gradle plugin that provides support for [semantic versioning](http://semver.org) of builds. It is quite easy to use and extremely configurable. The plugin allows you to bump the major, minor, patch or pre-release version based on the latest version, which is identified from a git tag. It also allows you to bump pre-release versions based on a scheme that you define. The version can be bumped by using version-component-specific project properties or can be bumped automatically based on the contents of a commit message. If no manual bumping is done via commit message or project property, the plugin will increment the version-component with the lowest precedence; this is usually the patch version, but can be the pre-release version if the latest version is a pre-release one. The plugin does its best to ensure that you do not accidentally violate semver rules while generating your versions; in cases where this might happen the plugin forces you to be explicit about violating these rules.
