 If you have an existing application you can modify the `major`.`minor` and `shift` inputs to match the current version of your application.
 See our [.github/workflows/tests.version-autopilot.yml](.github/workflows/tests.version-autopilot.yml) for how rollover works. We leverage `${{github.run_number}}` internally to increment the version.
