⬆️ [Dependency]: Update Process-PSModule to v6.1.17

[Marius Storhaug (MariusStorhaug)]

PSSemVer moves onto Process-PSModule v6.1.17, which restores the version prefix on release tags before the next release goes out.

Fixed: The next release is tagged v1.1.11, not 1.1.11

PSSemVer was pinned to v6.1.15, which derives the release tag from the compiled manifest's ModuleVersion. That value is Major.Minor.Patch by definition and cannot carry the configured VersionPrefix, so the prefix was dropped. This repository's own v1.1.10 release is the evidence: every tag before it is v1.1.x, and it published as 1.1.10.

v6.1.16 fixes that, so the next release tags as v1.1.11 and the history is continuous again. The published 1.1.10 tag is deliberately left alone — the release and its attached artifact are public and the PowerShell Gallery listing links to it.

Fixed: Wildcard maximum versions no longer fail module processing

v6.1.17 fixes handling of wildcard maximum versions such as 1.*. This repository declares exactly that form in tests/PSSemVer.Tests.ps1:

#Requires -Modules @{ ModuleName = 'Pester'; ModuleVersion = '6.0.0'; MaximumVersion = '6.*' }

Technical Details

• .github/workflows/Process-PSModule.yml: @688896d # v6.1.15 -> @169c576 # v6.1.17.
• Bumped ahead of Dependabot rather than waiting for it. The github-actions ecosystem is configured with a 7-day cooldown, so v6.1.16 would not be offered until 2026-08-10 and v6.1.17 later still — both after the next release would have been mis-tagged.
