Version(s)
2.3.0
To reproduce
Run MinVer against a repo which looks like ☝️.
Expected behaviour
The tag on the first (blue) branch is used, since that branch was the current branch when the merged was performed. The version is
1.0.0-alpha.2
.Actual behaviour
The tag on the second (yellow) branch is used. The version is
1.0.0-alpha.1
.Workarounds
Tag some commit to coerce the version into being something you expect.
Additional context
Found while fixing #377. Thanks again to @karlika for spotting that bug!
Another approach is to ignore the
1.0.00
tag, since it is not valid SemVer due to the leading zero in the patch version. However, there may be other cases where the two tags could produce the same version, e.g. using special chars, so it's probably better to just assume that it is possible for two tags to produce the same version.
