name: verbump description: Bump the Blackpepper version, review full git diffs (including unrelated changes), craft a Conventional Commit message, and push the current branch. Use when the user asks to "verbump", "bump version", "increment version", "release", or explicitly requests version bump + commit + push for this repo.

Verbump

Overview

One-shot bump: update crates/blackpepper/Cargo.toml, review the full diff (including unrelated changes), commit with a clean message, and push the current branch. For this project, commits are the changelog.

Workflow

1. Pick target version (no confirmation prompt)

   • If the user specifies a version, use it.
   • If the user says "verbump" or "bump", default to a patch bump and proceed.
   • Only ask for clarification if the user explicitly asks for a major/minor bump without giving a version.

2. Review repository state and diffs

   • Run git status -sb.
   • Review complete diffs with git diff --stat and git diff.
   • If unrelated changes exist, call them out and proceed to include them unless the user explicitly requests otherwise. Do not revert changes unless explicitly requested.

3. Bump the version

   • Update only crates/blackpepper/Cargo.toml.
   • Keep edits ASCII-only and preserve file formatting.
   • Re-check with rg -n "version" crates/blackpepper/Cargo.toml if needed.

4. Validate and re-check diffs

   • Re-run git status -sb and git diff --stat.
   • Ensure only expected files changed before committing.
   • If tests are run, report results; if skipped, state why.

5. Commit and push

   • Stage the relevant files (usually crates/blackpepper/Cargo.toml, plus anything already expected).
   • Craft a Changelog style Commit message that includes a brief note on what changed since the last version tag.
   • git commit -m "<message>".
   • git push the current branch.

Output expectations

• Always report the chosen version and the final commit message.
• Call out the summary note that covers changes since the last version tag.
• Summarize any unrelated diffs you saw and whether they were included.
