Support version prefix

[kevnm67]

Building off #22, what are your thoughts on either providing an option or inferring a version prefix from the latest tags? (e.g. v from v1.1.0).

Also, adding the version bump inference to the docs would be helpful.

I'd be happy to contribute to either if you want/open to PR's.

I'm into it 👍

Extra kudos if doing that also updates the README references from the old version string to the new one

I'm into it too 👍

I would suggest to add a field to define a version pattern, that could then scale from the future, and have two variables instead of just $VERSION like now.

• one gives you just the semantic version e.g. 1.1.0
• one gives you the entire version tag e.g. v1.1.0

Obviously if you don't use any custom pattern those two are equal

@orta Definitely includes updating the README. I stumbled on the option reading your closed issue.

@f-meloni Thanks for the suggestion! Sounds good.
