[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
