Complete workflow for creating a new versioned release of vidpipe, including version bump, release notes, GitHub release, and npm publishing.
git status shows no uncommitted changes)npm test)gh CLI authenticated (gh auth status)Check commits since the last tag to decide the bump type:
git log --oneline $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD
fix: commits)feat: commits), no breaking changesBREAKING CHANGE or !: commits)npm version <patch|minor|major> --no-git-tag-version
This updates package.json and package-lock.json without creating a git tag (we'll do that manually after release notes).
npm run build && npm test
All tests must pass before proceeding.
git add package.json package-lock.json
