Its README contrasts it with Versioneer, especially for projects that do not use setup.py or do not want generated versioning code committed into the repository. The project broadened beyond Git-only workflows: official docs list support for Git, Mercurial, Darcs, Subversion, Bazaar, Fossil, and Pijul, and serialization styles including PEP 440, Semantic Versioning, and Haskell PVP. ### Adoption history Dunamai is distributed as a Python package, a command-line tool, a GitHub Action, and a Homebrew formula. Its most visible related adoption path is poetry-dynamic-versioning, another mtkennerly project that uses VCS tags to enable dynamic versioning in Poetry projects. ### How it is used Users call commands such as `dunamai from any` in CI or release scripts to produce versions from tags, commit distance, dirty state, branch names, and commit IDs. As a library, it exposes a Version object so build tools can inspect and serialize version parts. ### Why package nerds care Dunamai matters to package maintainers because dynamic version generation sits at the boundary between VCS history, build backends, Python packaging rules, and reproducible release artifacts. It is a small package, but it codifies a common maintainer desire: tag a release once and let packaging metadata follow. ### Timeline - 2019: The GitHub repository is created. - 2019: v0.1.0 is published on GitHub Releases and PyPI. - 2019: poetry-dynamic-versioning is created as a related Poetry integration. - 2026: v1.26.1 is published and packaged as Homebrew stable 1.26.1. ### Related projects - Related projects include Versioneer, setuptools-scm, poetry-dynamic-versioning, Poetry, Flit, GitHub Actions, and the VCS tools that Dunamai can read: Git, Mercurial, Darcs, Subversion, Bazaar, Fossil, and Pijul. ### Sources - - - - - - - ## Security Notes narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Source Database Details - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** dunamai - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## Related links - [Source-control packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [Developer build packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/developer-build-tools/) - Matched build, compiler, generator, or developer workflow metadata. - [python@3.14](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/python-3-14/) - Runtime dependency declared by Homebrew. - [svu](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/svu/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, versioning. - [bump-my-version](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/bump-my-version/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, python, versioning. - [libversion](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/libversion/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, versioning. - [semtag](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/semtag/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, versioning. - [semver](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/semver/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, versioning. - [abi3audit](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/abi3audit/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, python. - [auditwheel](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/auditwheel/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, python. - [austin](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/austin/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, developer-tools, python. - [eralchemy](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/eralchemy/) - Both packages touch the same language runtime or ecosystem.
