Strategies

Git

If the current revision corresponds to a git tag, the git strategy will use this tag as a version., _(*3)

Incremental

The incremental strategy increment the version by 1. This strategy requires the version to end with a number. If there is no current version, the next version is set to 1., _(*4)

Ex: if the current version is v10, then this strategy will set the new version to v12, _(*5)
