[1.4] Update version to 1.4.0

[ahrtr]

Forgot to update the version when releasing v1.4.0. It shouldn't be a big problem, as we don't intentionally release the bbolt binary.

@ivanvc probably we can have a script do it automatically?

• update the version in version.go
• signoff & commit the change, and push it to github.com
• create the tag
• push the tag to github

Hi @Elbehery and @ahrtr. Given the size of this project, goreleaser may be a good fit. Refer to etcd-io/auger#136.

It seems not resolving the painpoint here. What we want to resolve is to prevent from forgetting to update version next time. A simple lightweight script is good enough.

[ivanvc]

You're right. In this case, we want to update the version before pushing the tag.

And given this project is a library, it doesn't make sense to read the version from a git reference. We want the version to be hardcoded in that file.

ok, so we go with bash script ?

Yes, please refer to https://github.com/etcd-io/etcd/blob/main/scripts/release.sh. But this one will be much simpler.
