This package, `grunt-build-number`, is a Grunt plugin designed to manage and increment a build number within project configuration files like `package.json` or `bower.json`. Its current stable version is 1.0.0, released in 2014, indicating a very slow or effectively abandoned release cadence since its initial launch. It provides a straightforward mechanism to automatically bump a specified field (defaulting to 'build') in a JSON file during the build process, which is highly useful for versioning deployments or artifacts within continuous integration workflows. It differentiates itself by being a dedicated Grunt task for this specific purpose, integrating directly into a Grunt-based workflow rather than requiring separate scripts or manual updates. The plugin requires Grunt to be installed and configured as a peer dependency in the project. Developers typically use it to ensure unique build identifiers for build artifacts or releases.
