Can I control bower versions with git tags only?

Question

I can specify version in bower.json , but it's quite complicated, and I often forget to update it in my packages and execute the 2nd commit.

Is it possible for Bauer to read git tags and read versions exclusively from this? (same as Composer for PHP). I could not find any information on whether the version property in bower.json or not.

Answer 1

The version property is not required, and Bauer will happily read your git tags if they are valid semver .
