If it is a breaking change, note it as such. That's it. > Otherwise several PRs could bump it several times, for example, and somebody needs to keep track of what the actual number should be. > The most authoritative source of this I know is [cargo-release](https://github.com/crate-ci/cargo-release), which many people use. Version bumping is done during the release and doing it beforehand would break that workflow. I like it. A quick glance, I couldn't find anything that documented this process, or is it just done by convention?
