# Changelog for https://github.com/mbarkhau/pycalver


## NEXT

This release includes a new syntax for patterns.

```
version_pattern = "vYYYY0M.BUILD[-RELEASE]"             # new style
version_pattern = "v{year}{month}{build}{release}"      # old style

version_pattern = "MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH"                   # new style semver
version_pattern = "{MAJOR}.{MINOR}.{PATCH}"             # old style semver
```

The main reasons for this switch were:
- To enable optional parts using braces `[PART]`.
- To align the syntax with the conventions used on CalVer.org

The previous syntax will continue to be supported, but all documentation has been updated to primarily reference new style patterns.

- Switch main repo from gitlab to github.
- New [gitlab#7][gitlab_i7]: New style pattern syntax.
  - Better support for week numbers.
  - Better support for optional parts.
  - New: `BUILD` part now starts at `1000` instead of `0001` to avoid truncation of leading zeros.
  - New: Add `INC0` (0-based) and `INC1` (1-based) parts that do auto increment and rollover.
  - New: `MAJOR`/`MINOR`/`PATCH`/`INC` will roll over when a date part changes to their left.
- New [gitlab#2][gitlab_i2]: Added `grep` sub-command to help with debugging of patterns.
- New [gitlab#10][gitlab_i10]: `--pin-date` to keep date parts unchanged, and only increment non-date parts.
- New: Added `--date=<iso-date>` parameter to set explicit date (instead of current date).
- New: Added `--release-num` to increment the `alphaN`/`betaN`/`a0`/`b0`/etc. release number
- New: Added better error messages to debug regular expressions.
- New [gitlab#9][gitlab_i9]: Make commit message configurable.
- Fix [gitlab#12][gitlab_i12]: Error with sorting non-lexical version tags (e.g. SemVer).
- Fix [gitlab#11][gitlab_i11]: Show regexp when `--verbose` is used.
- Fix [gitlab#8][gitlab_i8]: `pycalver push ` will now also push HEAD (previously only the tag itself was pushed).
- Fix: Disallow `--release=dev`. The semantics of a `dev` releases are different than for other release tags and further development would be required to support them correctly.
- Fix: Entries in `file_patterns` were ignored if there were multiple entries for the same file.

This release no longer includes the `pycalver.lexid` module, which has been moved into its own package: [pypi.org/project/lexid/](https://pypi.org/project/lexid/).
