Adds a new minor version tag to the current git repository.
Add-MinorVersionTag [-Message] <String> [-CurrentBranchOnly] [<CommonParameters>]

Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: FalseBy default, all branches are searched for the most recent version tag which is then used as the basis for the next version. However, -CurrentBranchOnly restricts this search to the the lineage of the current branch. The default is preferable if you want versions to span the entire repository; CurrentBranchOnly is preferrable if you want versions restricted to particular branches.
For example...
Let's say you have a repository with a commit tagged v6.0.0 in one branch and another tagged v5.2.3 in a different branch. Now let's say you need to make a change to the v5.X.X branch that shouldn't be considered part of v6.0.0. In that scenario, you should use Add-PatchVersion -CurrentBranchOnly -Message 'Fixed the thing' to create a new tag v5.2.4. If you didn't specify -CurrentBranchOnly -- regardless of which branch you're currently on -- the next version generated by Add-PatchVersion would be v6.0.1 because it would determine that across all branches v6.0.0 is the most recent version and would use it as the basis for the next version.
