Versioning NPM packages

A lot of people don't know that it's super simple to version npm packages. And have used things like gulp-bump or other needless packages. man npm-version shows us that it's as simple as:

npm version major
npm version minor
npm version patch

Following semver, it will update the package.json file automatically and apply a git tag with the version. This allows you to duplicate annotated package versions on github with what's been released in your packages through npm deploy. Couldn't be simpler!
