git-commit during version bumping automatically

jasonkarns · jasonkarns · commit d32ee556ea84 · 2020-04-28T16:26:35.000-04:00
This is currently broken because npm will not automatically commit/tag
if the package is not at the repo root.

This project is using lerna, but we don't need lerna since we're only
modifying a single subpackage. So instead, we hook into the version
lifecycle event to do the git committing ourselves. (But no tagging;
there are still multiple packages in this repo after all.)
