GitVersion does not append the label + pull-request number on PRs

[IT-VBFK]

Hi

With v5 we had a GitVersion.yml config for PRs which looked like this:

pull-request:
    mode: ContinuousDeployment
    regex: ((pull|pull\-requests|pr)[/-]|[/-](merge))
    tag: pr
    tag-number-pattern: '[/-]?(?<number>\d+)'
    prevent-increment-of-merged-branch-version: false

To be clear: we have a small routine in our build that generates this version like: 1.2.3-[pr number].[build number]

This produces the following version (e.g. from build pipeline output):

Branch spec refs/pull/2733/merge is a pull request. Adding build number 3437
SemVer = 6.13.0-pr2733.3437

So, the version generated by gitversion was 6.13.0-pr.2733

With v6 we now have the following issue:

First, fix the yaml for v6 to

pull-request:
    mode: ContinuousDeployment
    regex: ((pull|pull\-requests|pr)[/-]|[/-](merge))
    label: pr
    label-number-pattern: '[/-]?(?<number>\d+)'
    prevent-increment:
      of-merged-branch: false

Now, the version generated from GitVersion is (also from build output):

SemVer before: 7.0.0
Branch spec refs/pull/1/merge is a pull request. Adding build number 562
SemVer = 7.0.562

SemVer should be: 7.0.0-pr1.562 in this case

So, there is no -pr.[pr number] label generated.

I'm pretty sure this is a misconfiguration, but cannot find it.

Help is really appreciated.

Thank you

You need to keep in mind that the latest git version update was a major version update. Thus just to copy the configuration one by one and migrate it is not the right way without understanding what have changed.

Like mentioned in the breaking change documentation (see Link[1]):

The versioning mode has been renamed to deployment mode and consists of following values:

ManualDeployment (previously ContinuousDelivery)
ContinuousDelivery (previously ContinuousDeployment)
ContinuousDeployment (new)

Please try the following configuration (see Link[2]):

workflow: GitFlow/v1

or (see Link[3])

workflow: GitHubFlow/v1
