CI/CD - Use build number provided by CI/CD services #316
Description
Why
CI/CD tools like Bitrise, GitHubAction, and Codemagic provide the build number so we can use that for the build number of the application. We will update our templates for Bitrise and GitHubAction to get the following benefit:
- It is easier to track the commit of a version.
- Make the build number more predictable.
- Avoid duplicate build numbers when rebuilding the same commit (after registering a new device, we must re-deploy the app).
- CI machines don't have to clone the whole project history to get the correct number of commits, reducing the overall build time and the cost of running CI/CD.
