Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. Format: Keep a Changelog.

[1.6.3] - 2026-07-11

Added

• Logo — docs/static/images/releaser-logo-1024.png (1024×1024) set as Geekdoc site header logo via geekdocLogo; 128×128 version added to README above the release badge

Fixed

• .gitignore over-matching — releaser-* was catching files inside docs/static/images/; anchored to /releaser-* so only root-level release binaries are excluded

Changed

• docs/hugo.toml baseURL — set to https://releaser.k3nny.fr/ (was "/")

[1.6.2] - 2026-07-11

Changed

• task ci now runs go tool staticcheck ./... — runs between go vet and go test; matches the step already present in the Gitea CI workflow

Fixed

• SA4006 in TestLatestTagTagsIterFails — err from gogit.PlainOpen was assigned then immediately overwritten without being read; added the missing if err != nil { t.Fatalf(...) } check

[1.6.1] - 2026-07-11

Fixed

• CI root-permission failures — four tests that used os.Chmod to force error paths were failing in Docker CI (which runs as root, where chmod has no enforcement effect); each now skips with os.Getuid() == 0; the gitutil test had broken skip logic that only fired if Chmod itself errored — replaced with the same upfront UID check

[1.6.0] - 2026-07-11

Added

• Gradle support — new internal/gradle package; reads and writes the version assignment in build.gradle (Groovy DSL, single-quoted) and build.gradle.kts (Kotlin DSL, double-quoted); original quote style preserved on write; regexp.QuoteMeta ensures version strings with dots or special chars are safe
• gradle.build_file / gradle.build_files config — opt-in, no default; build_files list overrides build_file for multi-module projects; follows the same multi-value pattern as maven.pom_paths and node.package_jsons
• --gradle <path> flag — overrides gradle.build_file from config and clears gradle.build_files; mirrored in verbose config table as gradle.paths
• FuzzReadVersion / FuzzWriteVersion in internal/gradle — 100% per-package statement coverage maintained across all 13 packages

[1.5.1] - 2026-07-11

Added

• Documentation site — Hugo + Geekdoc theme; content covers installation, CLI reference, configuration, CI integration, and changelog; deployed to gh-pages via Gitea CI on push to main
• docs:setup / docs:serve / docs:build Taskfile tasks — docs:setup downloads the Geekdoc theme bundle (idempotent); docs:serve runs Hugo with live reload; docs:build produces a minified static site
• FuzzUpdate in internal/changelog — fuzzes arbitrary existing file content paired with a commit message, covering the \n## [ insertion logic and idempotency guard
• FuzzWriteVersion in internal/node — mirrors FuzzReplaceProjectVersion in internal/maven; fuzzes arbitrary JSON content with arbitrary old/new version strings

Changed

• CLAUDE.md — new "Fuzzing" section: authoritative table of which packages require fuzz tests and why, list of exempt packages with rationale, seed corpus guidelines

[1.5.0] - 2026-07-11

Added

• Multi-module Maven support — maven.pom_paths: [...] lists multiple pom.xml paths (e.g. root + sub-modules); overrides pom_path; each path is updated and committed in the same release commit
• Node.js package.json support — opt-in via node.package_json (single path) or node.package_jsons (list, overrides the single path); version is bumped in-place alongside pom.xml and CHANGELOG.md
• git.bump_rules config — controls which version component each commit type bumps: breaking, feat, fix each accept "patch" (default) or "minor"; allows e.g. feat: "minor" to bump the minor component instead of patch
• Injectable function vars in cmd/main.go — absPath, gitAllCommits, gitCommitsSince, gitCommitFiles are now package-level vars overridable in tests to inject errors, enabling 100% per-package statement coverage across all 12 packages

Changed

• --pom flag now clears maven.pom_paths before setting maven.pom_path, ensuring the CLI flag always wins over a multi-path config file entry
• version.Next() signature — accepts a map[commits.Type]semver.BumpLevel bump-rules map as a sixth parameter; nil defaults to all-patch (no change to existing behaviour)
• Verbose config table — now includes git.bump_rules.breaking/feat/fix, maven.pom_paths (effective list), and node.paths rows

[1.4.0] - 2026-07-11

Added

• GitHub release support — new internal/ghclient package (minimal HTTP client, no SDK); configured via github.token + github.repo in .releaser.yml or GITHUB_TOKEN env var; GitHub takes precedence over GitLab when both are configured
• SSH agent push — gitutil.Push() now attempts go-git SSH agent auth (gitssh.NewSSHAgentAuth) for git@ / ssh:// remotes before falling back to the system git binary; no extra configuration needed
• --release-env-file flag — override the dotenv artifact path (relative to repo root; default release.env); pass "" to disable writing the file entirely (e.g. for local runs)
• git.releasable_types config — opt-in list of commit types that count as releasable (fix, feat, breaking); defaults to all three; useful for maintenance branches where some types should not trigger a release
• commits.Group(), ExtractSubject(), ReleasableSet() — exported helpers in internal/commits; shared by notes and changelog, eliminating duplicated grouping and subject-extraction logic
• CHANGELOG deduplication guard — changelog.Update() is now idempotent; skips the write if a ## [version] section already exists, preventing duplicate entries on CI reruns
• Publisher interface — releasePublisher interface + buildPublisher() in cmd/main.go; GitLab and GitHub are now interchangeable backends; new providers can be added without touching the orchestration logic
• artifacts: reports: dotenv: release.env in .releaser.gitlab-ci.yml — exposes NEXT_VERSION to downstream GitLab CI jobs out of the box

Changed

• Always load config sources — LoadWithSources() is now called unconditionally instead of only in --verbose mode; single code path, no behavioural difference
• version.Next() signature — accepts a map[commits.Type]bool releasable set as a fifth parameter; nil defaults to all three types (no change to existing behaviour)
• Verbose config table — now includes git.releasable_types, github.token, and github.repo rows

[1.3.0] - 2026-07-07

Added

• release.env dotenv artifact — on every real release (not --dry-run) a release.env file is written to the repository root containing NEXT_VERSION=<tag>; the file is never committed, allowing GitLab CI to expose it as a dotenv artifact and pass the version to downstream jobs (deploy, notify, etc.)

[1.2.0] - 2026-07-07

Added

• --verbose flag — prints a configuration table (each key, its value, and source: default / config file / env: VARNAME / flag: --name), lists every commit since the last tag with its parsed type and bump decision, and shows the final version choice; all output goes to stderr
• Colored, structured CLI output — progress lines use · / ✓ / ! prefix symbols; --verbose mode uses ▸ section headers (configuration / branch / commits / version); commit type column colored by kind (cyan=feat, green=fix, red=breaking); config source tags colored; respects NO_COLOR and TERM=dumb; auto-disabled when stderr is not a TTY
• Name and version header — releaser vX.Y.Z printed to stderr at the start of every invocation

Changed

• Default tag_prefix is now empty — tags are bare version numbers (1.2.3) by default; add tag_prefix: "v" to .releaser.yml or pass --tag-prefix v to opt in to the v-prefixed convention

[1.1.0] - 2026-07-07

Added

• CHANGELOG.md auto-update — every release now writes a new dated section to CHANGELOG.md (grouped by Breaking Changes / Added / Fixed), committed alongside pom.xml in the release commit; file is created if it does not exist
• --changelog-file flag — override the default CHANGELOG.md path (e.g. --changelog-file CHANGES.md)
• --init flag — scaffolds a fully-commented default .releaser.yml in the repository root; errors if the file already exists
• CommitFiles in gitutil — internal helper that stages multiple files before a single commit, used to bundle pom.xml + CHANGELOG.md in one release commit

Fixed

• Push without token — go-git's HTTPS transport does not use the system credential store; when GITLAB_TOKEN is unset the push now delegates to the git CLI so credential helpers, SSH agents, and netrc all work as expected

[0.4.2] - 2026-07-07

Fixed

• CI build step — go build ./cmd/... failed with "output already exists and is a directory" because Go tried to write a binary named cmd, conflicting with the source directory; fixed by passing -o /dev/null
• Optional pom.xml — releaser no longer fails when pom.xml (or the configured maven.pom_path) does not exist; it logs a notice and proceeds directly to tag and push, making the tool usable in non-Maven projects

[0.4.0] - 2026-07-07

Added

• Branch parser — extracts major.minor from release/X.Y branch names using a configurable regex pattern
• Git tag discovery — finds the latest vX.Y.* tag that is a reachable ancestor of HEAD (ignores tags on other version lines or unrelated branches)
• Conventional Commits parser — non-strict mode: case-insensitive type, optional scope, flexible whitespace; unrecognised messages are silently skipped
• Commit range walker — scans from last matching tag to HEAD; falls back to full history on first release in a branch
• Version calculator — increments patch; returns nothing when there are no releasable commits (exit code 2 so CI can distinguish "nothing to do" from errors)
• --dry-run flag — prints next version without making any changes
• --branch flag — overrides automatic branch detection for detached-HEAD CI environments
• --no-push flag — commits and tags locally without pushing or creating a GitLab release
• --no-commit flag — updates pom.xml and stops; re-run with --tag-only after manual review
• --tag-only flag — tags HEAD without touching pom.xml (pair with --no-commit flow)
• Dirty working-tree check — aborts before any changes if tracked files are modified or staged
• .releaser.yml config — optional YAML loaded from repo root; missing file is not an error; all fields have sensible defaults
• Configurable tag prefix — git.tag_prefix in config or --tag-prefix flag (default: v)
• Configurable branch pattern — git.branch_pattern in config or --branch-pattern flag (default: ^(?:.*/)?release/(\d+)\.(\d+)$)
• Configurable commit message — git.commit_message with {version} placeholder (default: chore(release): {version} [skip ci])
• Configurable commit author — git.author_name / git.author_email; falls back to repo git config
• Configurable pom_path — maven.pom_path in config or --pom flag (default: pom.xml)
• pom.xml reader / writer — in-place version update; correctly ignores <parent> and dependency version elements
• GitLab release creation — minimal HTTP client (no SDK); auto-generates release notes grouped by Breaking Changes / Features / Bug Fixes
• HTTPS push with token auth — oauth2 + GITLAB_TOKEN
• GITLAB_TOKEN, CI_SERVER_URL, CI_PROJECT_ID, CI_PROJECT_PATH env var support for GitLab CI environments
• Dockerfile — multi-stage build, Alpine final image with ca-certificates
• .releaser.gitlab-ci.yml — reusable GitLab CI job template (extends: .releaser:release) with GIT_DEPTH: 0 and HTTPS push pre-wired
• .releaser.yml template — annotated example of every config option with its default value
• Gitea CI workflow — runs vet, staticcheck, test, build on every push
• Gitea release workflow — cross-compiles five platform binaries (linux/amd64+arm64, darwin/amd64+arm64, windows/amd64) and publishes them as release assets on tag push
• Taskfile — build, run, test, cov, cov:text, lint, fmt, tidy, fuzz, fuzz:all, ci, clean, docker:build, docker:run
• 96% test coverage — integration tests use real in-memory git repositories; fuzz tests cover all parser entry-points
