release v0.5.0

Easy semver releases.

How it works

• stash changes and untracked files (you must use the -u flag)
• if the files array exists in package.json:
  • delete any paths not in that array
• delete any paths matching the -x globs
• update the package version
• ensure the latest branch exists
• reset the latest branch to master
• run these scripts in order:
  • build, prepublish, prepare, prepublishOnly
• commit changes with a message like 1.0.0
• create a semver tag like 1.0.0
• force push to origin/latest
• end on master branch

CLI

release 0.0.1   # specify exact version
release -p      # bump the patch version
release -m      # bump the minor version, set patch to 0
release -M      # bump the major version, set patch/minor to 0
release -R      # rebase the current version

Flags

• -p --patch set release type to "patch"
• -m --minor set release type to "minor"
• -M --major set release type to "major"
• -P --pre prepend "pre" when used with -p, -m, or -M; otherwise, set release type to "prerelease"
• -R --rebase update the current version (useful after a rebase)
• -u --stash stash changes and untracked files
• -x --exclude globs excluded from the latest branch
