Bump Version

Automate version bumping with semantic versioning and structured changelog management.

Steps

  1. Extract the current version number from the manifest file.

  2. Retrieve all commit messages since the last git tag (v<current_version>) to HEAD:

    git log v<current_version>..HEAD --pretty=format:'%H%n%s%n%b%n----END----'
    
  3. Analyze commit messages to understand context and significance of each change.

  4. Confirm that no old changelog entries will be removed — this is critical for maintaining project history integrity.

  5. Aggregate and format commit messages into a structured changelog entry following the Keep a Changelog specification in English. NEVER REMOVE OLD CHANGELOG ENTRIES. NEVER REMOVE OLD CHANGELOG ENTRIES.
