Summary

Create a new CLI tool version_bump_remote.php that bumps version in manifest XML and CHANGELOG.md on a remote branch via Gitea contents API without requiring a local checkout.

Problem

client-release.yml Step 5 has ~55 lines of inline curl/python that:

Compute next minor version via version_bump.php --minor
GET templateDetails.xml from dev via API
Replace <version> in content
PUT updated content back via API
GET CHANGELOG.md from dev via API
Add Unreleased section header
PUT updated changelog back via API

This is the largest inline block remaining.

Proposed CLI

Usage:
  php version_bump_remote.php --path . --branch dev --bump minor \n    --token TOKEN --api-base URL

Options:
  --path       Repository root (reads current version from manifest)
  --branch     Target branch to bump (e.g. dev)
  --bump       Bump type: patch | minor | major (default: minor)
  --token      Gitea API token
  --api-base   Gitea API base URL for the repo
  --changelog  Also bump CHANGELOG.md (default: true)

Impact

~55 lines to 3 lines. Also benefits all Joomla auto-release workflows.

Affected workflows

client-release.yml (Template-Client-WaaS, client-waas-clarksvillefurs)
All Joomla auto-release workflows that bump dev after stable release
