Currently we use bump2version to increment versions via GitHub Actions. We are using the default configuration that just replaces string for another. For instance, when we bump the version from 0.1.5 to 0.1.6 it changes all occurrences of the 0.1.5 to 0.1.6.

This can be a problem since we may end up updating a 3rd party dependency without noticing it. Investigate a solution:

• keep the version in a separate file such as VERSION.txt python, unclear if supported by node / rust
• Improve the parser used by bump2version, see the go example here: https://pypi.org/project/bump2version/
• Investigate a new solution / build our own
