Currently, my Java applications have the same version on every build. I am using Maven, but I am not sure how to set up the workflow to add a version to the application on each build.
I imagine this works with my version control system? I am using git, does this mean I need git tags?
Thanks for any insights, I know it’s a big question, but I am not sure where to get started.
You start by setting your version to, for example, 1-SNAPSHOT.
Then you use the maven-release-plugin to release early and often.
In the interim, each snapshot gets a unique timestamp.
If you want to apply a version that isn’t the official maven version, see the buildnumber-maven-plugin.
