sebastianbergmann/version

This system is a PHP library designed for semantic version detection and string representation. It retrieves version information from Git repositories using safe process execution and strict typing. The project focuses on modern PHP standards, requiring PHP 8.4 and utilizing PHPStan for static analysis.

The library has been renamed to sebastian/version and is now installed exclusively via Composer, with PEAR support removed. The public API method getVersion() has been renamed to asString(), and the README has been updated to reflect the new namespace and usage. Additionally, the project has switched from Psalm to PHPStan for static analysis, introduced a comprehensive PHP-CS-Fixer configuration, and added automated dependency updates via Renovate.

(repo-wide) · high confidence

The project now manages the Phive binary directly in the repository (tools/phive) and uses it to install PHPStan, which replaces Psalm as the static analysis tool. A symlink (tools/phpstan) points to the installed PHPStan binary, and the configuration includes strict rules and type-coverage extensions to improve code quality checks.

The version detection logic in src/Version.php has been rewritten to use strict types, readonly classes, and proc\_open instead of exec for safer and more reliable Git information retrieval. The manual autoload file src/autoload.php has been removed, as the class is now part of the standard namespace and likely handled by Composer. Users will see improved type safety and potentially different behavior in how Git tags are parsed, with a focus on avoiding shell spawning and ensuring the path is strictly checked for a .git directory.

src · high confidence

The build directory has been cleaned up by removing several obsolete configuration and tooling files, including the PEAR package manifest (package.xml), documentation generation config (phpdox.xml), code quality rulesets (phpmd.xml, PHPCS ruleset.xml and associated sniffs), and the PHPUnit configuration (phpunit.xml). A new PHP script (extract-release-notes.php) has been added to the build/scripts directory to extract release notes from the ChangeLog.md file based on a provided version tag.

build · high confidence

The test bootstrap file (tests/bootstrap.php) has been removed. This file previously handled the autoloading of the source code for the test suite by requiring the main autoload script.

tests · high confidence

The project now requires PHP 8.4 or higher, dropping support for older PHP versions, and introduces a dedicated \tools/.phpstan\ directory to manage static analysis dependencies (PHPStan 2.2.14, strict-rules, and extension-installer) separately from the main application. The main \composer.json\ also adds a security policy link and configures the autoloader for optimized performance.

(dependencies) · high confidence

The \tools/.phpstan\ directory has been updated to use PHPStan version 2.2.14, along with \phpstan-strict-rules\ 2.0.12 and \ergebnis/phpstan-rules\ 2.13.1. This update brings the latest static analysis capabilities and rule sets to the project's local development environment, ensuring code quality checks remain current with the PHPStan 2.x ecosystem.
