Auto Versioning in Visual Studio 2017 (.NET Core)

Question

I have spent the better part of a few hours trying to find a way to auto-increment versions in a .NETCoreApp 1.1 (Visual Studio 2017).

I know the the AssemblyInfo.cs

Answer 1

I made a simple CLI tool for setting .csproj .NET Core version strings here. You can combine it with tools like GitVersion for automatic version bumping during CI builds, if that's what you're after.
