26           -numify             force versions to be a specific format,

DESCRIPTION

33       A typical distribution of a Perl module has embedded version numbers is
34       a number of places. Typically the version will be mentioned in the
35       README file and in each module's source. For a module the version may
36       appear twice: once in the code and once in the pod.
37
38       This script makes it possible to update all of these version numbers
39       with a simple command.
40
41       To update the version numbers of specific files name them on the
42       command line. Any directories will be recursively expanded.
43
44       If used with no filename arguments perl-reversion will attempt to
45       update README and any files below lib/ in the current project.

OPTIONS

48       "-bump"
49           Attempt to make the smallest possible increment to the version. The
50           least significant part of the version string is incremented.
51
52               1       =>  2
53               1.1     =>  1.2
54               1.1.1   =>  1.1.2
55               1.1.1_1 =>  1.1.1_2
56
57       "-bump-revision"
58       "-bump-version"
59       "-bump-subversion"
60       "-bump-alpha"
61           Increment the specified version component.  Like the "inc_*"
62           methods of Perl::Version, incrementing a component sets all
63           components to the right of it to zero.
64
65       "-set <version>"
66           Set the version to the specified value. Unless the "-normal" option
67           is also specified the format of each individual version string will
68           be preserved.
69
70       "-current <version>"
71           Specify the current version. Only matching version strings will be
72           updated.
73
74       "-normal"
75       "-numify"
76       "-stringify"
77           Use a specific formatting, as in "Formatting" in Perl::Version.
78
79           Alone, these options control how the current (found) version is
80           displayed.
81
82           With "-bump" or "-set", also update version strings to have the
83           given formatting, regardless of the version format passed to "-set"
84           or the current version (for "-bump").
85
86           If none of these options are specified, perl-reversion will
87           preserve the formatting of each individual version string (the same
88           as "-stringify").
89
90       "-dryrun"
91           If set, perl-reversion will not save files. Use this to see what
92           gets changed before it actually happens.
