Description

Summary

Similar to how uv build has an --all-packages option, uv version could provide the same capability. Currently, it only features a --package option which is cumbersome for projects with many workspaces if you want to bump them all at once.

Example

To bump all workspace members' version today:

uv version --bump minor --package a
uv version --bump minor --package b
uv version --bump minor --package c

Proposal:

uv version --bump minor --all-packages

Research direction
Examine the existing `uv version` command implementation in the codebase (likely in crates/uv cli/src/lib.rs or similar). Study how ` all packages` is implemented for `uv build` to understand the pattern. Check for any existing discussions or related issues linked in the comments. The implementation would involve adding a new flag to the version command and iterating over workspace members. Ensure to update CLI help text and test coverage.
