NAME

       Dist::Zilla::Role::VersionProvider - something that provides a version number for the dist

VERSION

       version 5.008

DESCRIPTION

       Plugins implementing this role must provide a "provide_version" method that will be called
       when setting the dist's version.

       If a VersionProvider offers a version but one has already been set, an exception will be
       raised.  If "provides_version" returns undef, it will be ignored.

SEE ALSO

       Core Dist::Zilla plugins implementing this role: AutoVersion.
