Pyhist is a Python utility to automagically update the package version from the git history and generate the Changelog. Inspired by the Conventional Commits specification, this tool inspects the commits history and calculates the new version.

• Init: initializes the pyhist from the current git history and creates a .pyhist binary file and creates a versioning commit with the initialization of the utility.

pyhist --init

• Update: triggers the version update (minor and/or patch). The command inspects the changes applied to the git history from the previous version update and performs the following changes:
  1. Updates the version in the setup.py
  2. Generates a Changelog.md with the content of the version updates (or appends the changes if previously created)
  3. Updates the .pyhist
  4. Adds a versioning commit with the changes (i.e. versioning: Set version to 1.3.7)

pyhist --update

• Major: triggers the version update in the major version. This command performs the equivalent steps to the update command.

pyhist --major

Pyhist requires Python 3.7 or higher.
