publish

/publish — release this extension to Open VSX + VS Code Marketplace

End-to-end release flow for this VSCode extension. Every step is mandatory; stop and report if any step fails — do NOT continue past a failure.

0. Parse args

• Argument may be patch, minor, or major. Default: patch.
• Reject anything else with a short error.

1. Preflight

Run these checks in parallel and abort on any failure:

• git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD — must be main.
• git status --porcelain — must be empty (clean working tree). If dirty, stop and list the dirty files; do not stash.
• test -n "$OVSX_PAT" (via printenv OVSX_PAT | head -c 4) — must be non-empty. If missing, stop with:

  OVSX_PAT not set. Create a token at https://open-vsx.org/user-settings/tokens then export OVSX_PAT=<token> and retry.

• test -n "$VSCE_PAT" (via printenv VSCE_PAT | head -c 4) — must be non-empty. If missing, stop with:

  VSCE_PAT not set. Create an Azure DevOps PAT (scope: Marketplace → Manage, org: All accessible) at https://dev.azure.com → User settings → Personal access tokens, then export VSCE_PAT=<token> and retry.

• Read current version from packages/extension/package.json. The repo-root package.json has no version — it's the monorepo manifest.

2. Compute new version

Semver bump based on arg:

• patch: x.y.z → x.y.(z+1)
• minor: x.y.z → x.(y+1).0
• major: x.y.z → (x+1).0.0

State the old → new version in one line before proceeding.

3. Collect release notes

Get commits since the last tag:

LAST_TAG=$(git describe --tags --abbrev=0 2>/dev/null || echo "")
if [ -n "$LAST_TAG" ]; then
  git log "$LAST_TAG"..HEAD --pretty=format:'- %s'
else
  git log --pretty=format:'- %s'
fi

Filter the output:

• Drop Merge ..., Bump version ..., Release v..., and any line matching the auto-generated commit from step 7.
• Keep the rest verbatim as bullet points.

If the list is empty, stop and report: "No commits since $LAST_TAG — nothing to release."
