+If `preversion`, `version`, or `postversion` are in the `scripts` property of
+the package.json, they will be executed as part of running `npm version`.
+
+The exact order of execution is as follows:
+ 1. Check to make sure the git working directory is clean before we get started.
+ Your scripts may add files to the commit in future steps.
+ This step is skipped if the `--force` flag is set.
+ 2. Run the `preversion` script. These scripts have access to the old `version` in package.json.
+ A typical use would be running your full test suite before deploying.
+ Any files you want added to the commit should be explicitly added using `git add`.
+ 3. Bump `version` in `package.json` as requested (`patch`, `minor`, `major`, etc).
+ 4. Run the `version` script. These scripts have access to the new `version` in package.json
+ (so they can incorporate it into file headers in generated files for example).
+ Again, scripts should explicitly add generated files to the commit using `git add`.
+ 5. Commit and tag.
+ 6. Run the `postversion` script. Use it to clean up the file system or automatically push
+ the commit and/or tag.
+
+Take the following example:
+
+ "scripts": {
+ "preversion": "npm test",
+ "version": "npm run build && git add -A dist",
+ "postversion": "git push && git push --tags && rm -rf build/temp"
+ }
+
+This runs all your tests, and proceeds only if they pass. Then runs your `build` script, and
+adds everything in the `dist` directory to the commit. After the commit, it pushes the new commit
+and tag up to the server, and deletes the `build/temp` directory.
