### 🚀 Features
- Version bumping now compares source branch vs target branch versions
- Calculates proper increment from version differences between branches
- Applies calculated increment to target branch version for new version
### 🔧 Improvements
- Replaces branch name-based versioning with actual version analysis
- Shows detailed version calculation in workflow logs
- Validates that source version is higher than target version
- Supports increments greater than 1 (e.g., patch increases by 2)
### 🧮 Version Calculation Logic
- **Target (main)**: `1.2.3`, **Source (patch/dev)**: `1.2.5`
- **Calculation**: patch increased by 2, so increment = 1
- **Result**: `1.2.4` (target version + minimum needed increment)
### 📊 Enhanced Validation
- Fails if no version increase detected between branches
- Ensures positive increments for version calculations
- Detailed logging of version comparison and calculation steps

### 🚀 Features
- Push to version branches (major/*, minor/*, patch/*) now creates merge PRs
- Merge branches (merge/major-*, merge/minor-*, merge/patch-*) contain prepared releases
- Version bump, changelog generation, and validation happen before merge
- Release publishing only occurs after merge PR approval
### 🔧 Improvements
- Separated release preparation from publishing for better review workflow

**Workflow Structure:**
1. Push to `patch/feature-name` → Creates/updates `merge/patch-feature-name` → Opens PR to main
2. Review and approve merge PR (version already bumped, changelog included)
3. Merge PR to main → Automatically publishes to NPM and creates GitHub release

- Deleted VERSION_WORKFLOW.md as the content is no longer relevant with the updated branch and versioning structure
- Streamlined repository by removing obsolete documentation to prevent confusion
- Removed version folder branch validation (no longer relevant with new branch structure)
- Simplified Claude CLI integration by removing fallback installation logic
- Streamlined workflow for more concise and focused validation steps
🗂️ **New Branch Structure:**
Changed from version/ prefixes to folder-based branches:
**Old Structure:**
- version/major
- version/minor
- version/patch
**New Structure:**
- major/ (folder branch)
- minor/ (folder branch)
- patch/ (folder branch)
**Usage Examples:**
- major/breaking-api-changes
- minor/new-email-features
- patch/fix-validation-bug
**Benefits:**
✅ More intuitive folder structure
✅ Better organization of related changes
✅ Clearer semantic meaning
✅ Multiple features can be worked on in parallel under same type
**Updated Logic:**
- Uses startsWith() instead of contains() for branch detection
- Updated validation to check for folder branches
