title: Web Essentials - Bundle versioning
body: <p>I'm currently using Visual Studio <em>Web Essentials</em> in order to bundle and minify my CSS and JavaScript files.</p>
  
  <p>At present I'm manually creating the bundles with a version number (e.g. <em>mybundle-1.0.0.css</em>) in order to avoid caching issues when pushed out to production. I'm also having to manually change the bundle files version number each time a change is made to the source.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Is there any sort of automatic versioning functionality in Web Essentials bundling that I may have overlooked?</strong></p>
  
  <p>The ideal workflow would be:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Developer updates a source file.</li>
  <li>Web essentials updates the bundle automatically.</li>
  <li>Web essentials increments the version number in the filename automatically.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Is this possible? </p>
  
  <p>If not, I'd be happy to hear any suggestions for better developer workflows.</p>
