Gitversion bases the version on the branch name

[rodrigoarnold]

Hi everyone,

Gitversion is basing the version on the name of my release branch... For example: My release branch is called release/Sprint-2023-18-v1.7.7 and Gitversion is creating a version with the Major "2023", for because of the name of my release branch. My question is, is there any way that Gitversion does not use my branch name?

My GitVersion.yml:

assembly-versioning-scheme: MajorMinorPatchTag
assembly-file-versioning-scheme: MajorMinorPatchTag
mode: ContinuousDelivery
branches:
develop:
increment: Minor
release:
regex: ^releases?[/-]
increment: Patch
ignore:
sha: []
merge-message-formats: {}

I would be very grateful if someone could help me.

In the breaking changes notes you will find the following:

A new configuration property with name version-in-branch-pattern has been introduced. This setting only applies on branches where the option is-release-branch is set to true. Please notice that the branch name needs to be defined after the version number by default (instead of support/lts-2.0.0 please name the branch like support/2.0.0-lts).

The default regular expression for version in branch pattern is (?<version>[vV]?\d+(\.\d+)?(\.\d+)?).*

This configuration has been introduces in release 6.0.0-beta.2:

• [Bug] VersionInBranchNameVersionStrategy only considers the release branch #2693

Happy Branching.
