Details​

This command will bump the version number for the given package, following the specified strategy:

  • If major, the first number from the semver range will be increased (X.0.0).

  • If minor, the second number from the semver range will be increased (0.X.0).

  • If patch, the third number from the semver range will be increased (0.0.X).

  • If prefixed by pre (premajor, ...), a -0 suffix will be set (0.0.0-0).

  • If prerelease, the suffix will be increased (0.0.0-X); the third number from the semver range will also be increased if there was no suffix in the previous version.

  • If decline, the nonce will be increased for yarn version check to pass without version bump.

  • If a valid semver range, it will be used as new version.

  • If unspecified, Yarn will ask you for guidance.
