name: Git Auto Semver Tag

    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      with:
        fetch-depth: '0'
    - uses: ArvindSinghRawat/Git-Automatic-Semver-Tagging@main
      env:
        GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

If this doesn't work, try creating a Personal Access Token and save it in project's environment with name PAT and replace the following code
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
with
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.PAT }}

How it works

  • If last commit doesn't have any Tag, then proceed with the following steps.
  • Checks for the last commit message
  • If message for last commit starts with either Breaking or Major (case-insensitive), then increase a Major version (+1.0.0) and reset Minor and Patch versions.
  • Otherwise, if message for last commit starts with either Feature or Minor (case-insensitive), then increase a Minor version (+0.1.0) and reset Patch version.
  • Otherwise. increase the Patch version only. (+0.0.1)
