MinVer is a minimalist .NET package that versions .NET SDK-style projects automatically using Git tags, applying SemVer 2.x versions to assemblies and packages at build time. It also ships as minver-cli, a .NET tool for versioning any software or content from Git tags.

Use cases

• automatically version .NET projects from git tags
• apply semantic versioning to assemblies and NuGet packages at build time
• version non-.NET software or content using git tags
• generate pre-release and patch versions in CI pipelines
• stop maintaining version numbers manually in project files

When to choose

• you build .NET SDK-style projects and want tag-driven automatic versioning
• you want a zero-configuration, minimalist SemVer 2.x versioning solution
• you release from Git tags and want versions applied during build or CI

When to avoid

• your project is not built with the .NET SDK and you prefer a non-CLI solution
• you need complex custom versioning schemes beyond SemVer 2.x git tags
• you don't use Git
