If you need to make releases from support branches and also from develop, take care to adjust your hooks to calculate master and develop branches according to versions.

Example: For releasing versions that start with 12., i.e. 12.2 we'll use support-12.x branch, otherwise develop branch:

function get_develop_branch_name {
  if [[ "$1" =~ ^12\..* ]]
  then
    echo "support-12.x"
  else
    echo "develop"
  fi
}

function get_master_branch_name {
  if [[ "$1"  =~ ^12\..* ]]
  then
    echo "master-12.x"
  else
    echo "master"
  fi
}

1. Install bats-core
2. Go to tests directory
