Gulp-tag-version is a handy tool for automating the process of tagging your Git repository with the current version number from your package.json file. Comparing versions 1.3.1 and 1.3.0 reveals some key updates beneficial for developers. Version 1.3.1, released in December 2017, brings updated dependencies including ansi-colors for colorful terminal output, fancy-log for improved logging, and a newer gulp-git version. These dependency updates likely address compatibility issues and improve the overall developer experience. It also removes gulp-util which suggests migration to other packages for utility functions. It is important to keep in mind that version 1.3.0 that was released in 2015 depends on gulp-util.
The switch to the newer gulp-git (from "~0.3.6" to "^2.4.2") is significant, potentially introducing changes in how Git commands are handled. Developers upgrading should review the gulp-git changelog for any breaking changes. Using the most recent version provides access to bug fixes and new features within these underlying tools. For new projects, 1.3.1 is the recommended choice due to its updated dependencies and improved stability. Existing projects should evaluate the impact of the dependency changes before upgrading. Both versions share the same core functionality of tagging Git repositories based on package version, making them valuable tools for streamlining release workflows.
