## Outputs
- *major*, *minor*, and *patch* provide the version numbers that have been determined for this commit
- *increment* is an additional value indicating the number of commits for the current version, starting at zero. This can be used as part of a pre-release label.
- *version* is a formatted version string created using the format input. This is a convenience value to provide a preformatted representation of the data generated by this action.
- *version_tag* is a string identifier that would be used to tag the current commit as the "released" version. Typically this would only be used to generate a Git tag name.
- *changed* indicates whether there was a change since the last version if change_path was specified. If no `change_path` was specified this value will always be true since the entire repo is considered. (It is possible to create a commit with no changes, but the Git cli rejects this by default and this case is not considered here)

## Tips for Getting Started
- Unless the current commit is already tagged, the version produced by this action will be one value ahead of the last tag.
- There are two types of "version" string, one is the semantic version output that can be used to identify a build and can include prerelease data and metadata specific to the commit such as `v2.0.1-pre001+cf6e75`, the other is the tag version string, which identifies a specific commit as being a specific version.
