0.7.0-rc.2

This release does some syntax cleanup and provides some improvements to building historical commits.

Syntax changes from:

reckon {
  normal = scopeFromProp()
  preRelease = stageFromProp('beta', 'rc', 'final')
}

To:

reckon {
  scopeFromProp()
  stageFromProp('beta', 'rc', 'final')
}

The old syntax will continue to be available until 1.0.0, but will generate a deprecation message.

Breaking Changes

• If you used reckon { vcs = <whatever> } to provide your own VcsInventorySupplier, that will no longer work.
• If you were directly using reckon-core, a lot of formerly public APIs changed there. I wouldn't consider the core JAR to be terribly stable. The Gradle plugin should hopefully stay pretty stable.

Enhancements

• #78 Historical commits can now be built (as long as it's either an insignificant version or a rebuild of a tagged version) without an error about the target normal being claimed.
• org.ajoberstar.grgit is now applied by default, you don't need to apply this yourself

Fixes

• Publish static versions in POM file on Gradle Plugin Portal

reckon.stage accepts snapshot and final when snapshotFromProp() is used.

Breaking Changes

None

Enhancements

• #71 reckon.stage is now supported for snapshotFromProp() and reckon.snapshot is deprecated, to be removed in 1.0.0 (see #75).
• #65 The inference algorithm has been documented by example.

Fixes

• #74 Included builds in a composite build no longer respect the reckon.* properties. Only the main build will use them.

0.5.0

This release made some major improvements to handling of dirty repos and rebuild logic.

• If a repo is dirty, it will never be considered a rebuild
• If a repo is dirty, it will always result in the string "uncommitted" being in the build metadata (for stage pre-release users) or a SNAPSHOT (for snapshot pre-release users)
• If a repo is clean and you provide no input, you will get a rebuild (assuming the HEAD is tagged)

Breaking Changes

• #46 Reimplemented rebuild behavior
• #67 Indicate uncommitted changes in version strings

Enhancements

None

Fixes

• #68 Projects with no commits fail with IllegalArgumentException
