 1. Use the following options to manage version numbers and customize the behavior:
 
    ```bash
-   bump2version --current-version 1.2.3 --bump patch
+   bump2version --bump patch # or minor or major
    ```
 
+## 🛠️ Configuration File
+
+To customize the behavior of `bump2version`, you can use a configuration file named `.bumpversion.toml`. This file should be present in the root of your project. If it's not found, the cli will use default values.
+
+Here's an example `.bumpversion.toml` configuration file you can use in your project:
+
+```toml
+[bumpversion]
+current_version = "0.1.0" # Specify the current version of your project.
+
+# Specify how to search for and replace the version in the 'Cargo.toml' file.
+[bumpversion:file:Cargo.toml]
+search = 'version = "{current_version}"'
+replace = 'version = "{new_version}"'
+```
