Task
Prepare a project release following these steps:
- Analyze Changes: Review git history since last release to determine appropriate version increment
- Update Version: Update version in package.json, setup.py, or other version files based on semantic versioning
- Update Changelog: Add new entries to CHANGELOG.md with proper categorization (Added, Changed, Fixed, etc.)
- Update Documentation: Review and update README.md if necessary for new features or changes
- Create Release: Tag the release and prepare release notes
If version type is specified in $ARGUMENTS, use that increment. Otherwise, analyze the changes and suggest appropriate versioning.
Focus on maintaining proper semantic versioning and clear changelog documentation.
