# Release Automation

## Overview

Automated versioning and releases using semantic-release. Covers version bump rules, semantic-release setup, post-push synchronization, and configuration files.

## Quick Reference

### Version Bump Mapping

| Commit Type | Bump | Example |
|-------------|------|---------|
| `upgrade` | MAJOR | Breaking API change |
| `feat` | MINOR | New feature |
| `fix` | PATCH | Bug fix |
| `perf` | PATCH | Performance improvement |
| `docs` | NONE | Documentation |
| `refactor` | NONE | Code restructure |

### Release Flow

```
Push to main → GitHub Actions
  → semantic-release analyzes commits
  → Determines version (MAJOR/MINOR/PATCH)
  → Updates package.json + CHANGELOG.md
  → Creates git tag + GitHub Release
```

### Post-Release Sync

```bash
git fetch origin --tags
git checkout dev
git rebase main
```
