How to fix pre-release configuration mismatch

[tscpp]

How do I fix this error?

[ERR!] Original version for package 'my-package' is not configured.

This error occurs because it detected that the version specified in 'package.json' was a pre-release, however it was not configured in 'conver.json'. This can happen if you manually change the version in 'package.json' or remove the pre-release entry from 'conver.json'.

package.json

{
  // The current pre-release version in package.json
  "version": "1.3.0-rc.3",
}

conver.json

{
  "original": {
    // The original version before pre-release (missing)
    "my-package": "1.2.3"
  }
}

The original version (the stable version present in the package.json before pre-release) is required to be configured. If this field is missing, you can manually add it to fix this error.

{
  "original": {
+   "my-package": "1.2.3"
  }
}

The original version is used to determine the main (stable version before pre-release suffix) bump. It should only ever bump once per pre-release, and that is why we need to original version.

Examples:

original -> pre-release // bump
-------------------------------
1.2.3    -> 1.2.4-rc.0  // patch
1.2.3    -> 1.3.0-rc.0  // minor
1.2.3    -> 2.0.0-rc.0  // major
