We use a cicd for our WPF project. It's alright but we have one big problem. When cicd deployed a ClickOnce package, then the version of the application didn't change. The application version changes when we make publishing by Visual Studio manually. It isn't great... We use GitLab with a runner. May you advise something?

Alright. Here is my solution...
I changed that code of my csproj-file:
<ApplicationRevision>123</ApplicationRevision>
to:
<ApplicationRevision Condition=" '$(ver)' != '' ">$(ver)</ApplicationRevision>
<ApplicationRevision Condition=" '$(ver)' == '' ">123</ApplicationRevision>
After that, I changed my .gitlab-ci.yml file:
.myapp-runner:
before_script:
- CHCP 65001
stages:
- build
- cleanup
build_job:
stage: build
only:
- master
script:
- $clickonce_ver = [int]${CI_PIPELINE_IID} + 500
- Write-Host $clickonce_ver
- '& "C:\tools\nuget.exe" restore myapp.sln -ConfigFile "C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\NuGet\NuGet.Config" -source "C:\Users\User\.nuget\packages\;https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/"'
- '& "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\MSBuild\Current\Bin\msbuild.exe" -m -p:Configuration=Release /target:publish -p:cicd=true -p:ver="$clickonce_ver"'
- '& xcopy .\bin\Release\app.publish\* C:\Publish\ /sy'
- 'move .\bin\Release\app.publish\ .\artifacts\'
artifacts:
expire_in: 1 days
paths:
- .\artifacts\
cleanup_job:
stage: cleanup
only:
- master
script:
- echo "Сlean up"
- Remove-Item -Recurse -Force .\*
A CI_PIPELINE_IID variable depends on CI job's number. After each launch, that variable increments.
Application package copies to the C:\Publish\ folder.
