Get-MFGitLatestVersion

SYNOPSIS

Retrieves the latest Git tag version in semantic version format.

SYNTAX

Get-MFGitLatestVersion [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

This function queries Git for available tags and processes them as semantic versions. If no tags are found, or if no tags match semver format, it initializes a new version starting from `1.0.0`. If Git is unavailable or returns an error, a warning is displayed, and processing continues gracefully.

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 2

DESCRIPTION

Runs the function with verbose output, providing detailed debugging information about the Git command execution and version determination.
