Talks about:
<a class="post-tag post-tag-maven" href="/tags/maven">maven</a>, and <a class="post-tag post-tag-versioning" href="/tags/versioning">versioning</a>
To automatically version Maven projects, I like to use the m-versions-p like this:
$ mvn versions:set -DnewVersion=my.new.version -DgenerateBackupPoms=false
This will update the version
property of every module in the reactor to prepare them for the next release. In case you are using GitHub Actions, consider using a timestamp.
