Adds prominent section explaining how to bump versions using the new
script. Future AI agents will know to use ./scripts/bump-version.sh
when the user requests a version bump.
Includes:
- Common user phrases for version bumps
- Step-by-step instructions
- What files get updated automatically
- Why this matters (references bd-66 issue)
Also updates Release Process section to use the script.

Implement `bd create -f file.md` to parse markdown files and create
multiple issues in one command. This enables drafting features in
markdown and converting them to tracked issues.
Features:
- Parse markdown H2 headers (##) as issue titles
- Support all issue fields via H3 sections (### Priority, ### Type, etc.)
- Handle multiple issues per file
- Comprehensive validation and error handling
- Full test coverage with 5 test cases
Closes bd-91 (GH-9)

Implements GH-18: Allow creating issues with dependencies in a single command.
Changes:
- Add --deps flag to bd create command
- Support format: 'type:id' or just 'id' (defaults to 'blocks')
- Multiple dependencies supported via comma-separated values
- Example: bd create "Fix bug" --deps discovered-from:bd-20,blocks:bd-15
- Updated README.md and CLAUDE.md with examples
This improves the UX for AI agents by reducing two commands (create + dep add)
to a single command, making discovered-from workflows much smoother.

Three improvements to beads:
1. ID space partitioning (closes bd-24)
- Add --id flag to 'bd create' for explicit ID assignment
- Validates format: prefix-number (e.g., worker1-100)
- Enables parallel agents to partition ID space and avoid conflicts
- Storage layer already supported this, just wired up CLI
2. Auto-flush failure tracking (closes bd-38)
- Track consecutive flush failures with counter and last error
- Show prominent red warning after 3+ consecutive failures
- Reset counter on successful flush
- Users get clear guidance to run manual export if needed
3. Manual export cancels auto-flush timer
- Add clearAutoFlushState() helper function
- bd export now cancels pending auto-flush and clears dirty flag
- Prevents redundant exports when user manually exports
- Also resets failure counter on successful manual export
Documentation updated in README.md and CLAUDE.md with --id flag examples.

Adds auto-import feature to complement bd-35's auto-export, completing
the automatic sync workflow for git collaboration.
**Implementation:**
- Auto-import checks if JSONL is newer than DB on command startup
- Silently imports JSONL when modification time is newer
- Skips import command itself to avoid recursion
- Can be disabled with --no-auto-import flag
**Documentation updates:**
- Updated README.md git workflow section
- Updated CLAUDE.md workflow and pro tips
- Updated bd quickstart with auto-sync section
- Updated git hooks README to clarify they're now optional
**Testing:**
- Tested auto-import by touching JSONL and running commands
- Tested auto-export with create/close operations
- Complete workflow verified working
Closes bd-33

Implements --resolve-collisions flag for import command to safely handle ID
collisions during branch merges. When enabled, colliding issues are remapped
to new IDs and all text references and dependencies are automatically updated.
Also adds comprehensive tests, branch-merge example, and documentation.
