GitAuto: [FEATURE] Use GitVersion

[gitauto-ai]

Resolves #190

Why is this feature needed?

We are integrating GitVersion into our repository to streamline and standardize our versioning process. By doing so, we remove the dependency on MSBuild.Version.Target and the outdated version.txt files, taking full advantage of GitVersion’s ability to derive version numbers directly from Git history and tags. This change not only simplifies our versioning workflow but also provides a more robust and flexible approach to version management.

What and how are we changing? Why this approach?

• The GitHub workflow file has been updated:
  • Renamed from build-bump-version.yml to build.yml to better reflect its purpose.
  • Integrated steps to install GitVersion and determine version numbers using Git history and configuration.
  • The build command has been updated to pass the version generated by GitVersion.
• The Directory.Build.props file has been modified:
  • Added GitVersion integration settings.
  • Included a PackageReference for GitVersion.MsBuild.
• The GitVersion.yml configuration file has been updated:
  • Defined version bumps for breaking, feature, fix, and no-bump messages.
  • Configured versioning schemes and branch rules to match our versioning strategy.

This approach lets us automatically derive consistent version numbers from Git metadata, eliminating manual intervention and legacy versioning techniques in our projects.

What actions are required from users?

• No manual actions are required on a day-to-day basis.
• Developers should ensure that they tag their commits according to the GitVersion bump message conventions (e.g., +semver: fix, +semver: feature) to trigger the correct version increments.
• Update any local build configurations if they rely on the old versioning system using MSBuild.Version.Target.

How does it work? (Technical details)

• The GitHub Actions workflow now includes:
  • A checkout step that fetches the complete history (fetch-depth: 0) for accurate version calculation.
  • Steps to set up .NET and install GitVersion via the gittools/actions.
  • Execution of GitVersion to determine version numbers from Git history, with outputs used in subsequent build steps.
  • A build step that passes the generated NuGet version from GitVersion to the dotnet build command.
• The Directory.Build.props file has been updated to enable GitVersion integration in our build pipeline.
• The GitVersion.yml file specifies versioning rules, ensuring that commit messages with certain keywords drive appropriate major, minor, or patch bumps.

Is it backwards compatible?

Yes, the changes are backwards compatible. Existing code and project structures remain unaffected, as the integration simply replaces the old versioning mechanism with GitVersion. However, developers should be aware of the new conventions for commit messages if they wish to trigger manual version increments.

Any other considerations?

• This feature will improve our continuous integration workflow and ensure that version numbers are automatically and accurately determined.
• It is advisable to monitor the first few builds after merging this change to ensure that all versioning steps are executed as expected.
• Although we have transitioned away from MSBuild.Version.Target and version.txt files, any legacy references in documentation or developer scripts should be updated to avoid confusion.
• Alternative approaches were considered, but integrating GitVersion provides the best blend of automation, reliability, and adherence to semantic versioning standards.

Reviewer's Guide by Sourcery

This pull request integrates GitVersion into the build process to automate semantic versioning. It installs GitVersion, determines the version based on commit history and configuration, and applies the version during the build process. A GitVersion configuration file is included to customize the versioning behavior.
