Feature request: support glob/asterisk in change_path

[Shaked]

The idea is to have an option to generate a version based on a more dynamic path. For example:

      - uses: paulhatch/[email protected]
        name: Generate version
        id: version
        with:
          tag_prefix: ""
          bump_each_commit: true
          version_format: "${major}.${minor}.${patch}"
          change_path: "path/**/platform"

In my case, I have dynamically generated directories under path and I want to follow all changes under their ./platform directory and tag it.

Another idea would be to support a file pattern, like all files containing a specific string or extension e.g. platform_*.yaml or *.yaml

WDYT?

So there is actually a workaround for this that I stumbled upon while reading the source code.

You can use $(...) in the change path since the source code is simply shelling out to a git log command with the change_path plugged in at the end after --. This allows you to use the power of the shell to include/exclude whatever you want.

In your case, you could make change_path

      - uses: paulhatch/[email protected]
        name: Generate version
        id: version
        with:
          tag_prefix: ""
          bump_each_commit: true
          version_format: "${major}.${minor}.${patch}"
          change_path: "$(ls -p path/**/platform/*)"

and it should do what you want.
