## Description

If you need your pipelines to fail if a major or breaking change release will be created with semantic-release, drop this plugin into your config.

## Installation

```bash
npm install --save-dev semantic-release-fail-on-major-bump
```

## Usage

In your [**semantic-release** configuration file](https://semantic-release.gitbook.io/semantic-release/usage/configuration#configuration-file), add `semantic-release-fail-on-major-bump`.

**`release.config.mjs`**

```js
export default {
	plugins: [
		// Add this line
		"semantic-release-fail-on-major-bump",
		// Example semantic-release commit-analyzer config below...
		[
			"@semantic-release/commit-analyzer",
			{
				"preset": "angular",
				"releaseRules": [
					{"type": "docs", "scope": "README", "release": "patch"},
					{"type": "refactor", "release": "patch"},
					{"type": "style", "release": "patch"},
				],
				"parserOpts": {
					"noteKeywords": ["BREAKING CHANGE", "BREAKING CHANGES"],
				},
			},
		],
	],
};
```

## Development

### Testing

Make a either a `Breaking:` or non-breaking typed commit and then see if the error was thrown if expected while running
a dummy dry-run release.

```bash
npm run test-release
```
