versionah

versionah is a simple tool to help you, or more specifically me, easily maintain version information for a project. Its entire aim is to make the act of displaying or bumping a project’s version number a thoughtless task.

All repetitive tasks should be easily automated, and versionah is just a little step in the right direction!

It is written in Python, and requires v2.6 or later. versionah is released under the GPL v3
