Description

Currently in our repository, a commit to a given project's (except for projects in the PluginsSystem folder) subtree will result in the version bumping for all projects. This is not desirable. We should set up proper versioning rules based on the dependencies and prevent unnecessary version changes.

Research direction

Start by locating the version files and the automation that reacts to project-subtree commits, then trace how dependencies are represented; pay particular attention to the exception for the PluginsSystem folder. Define dependency-based path rules and verify that an isolated project change no longer bumps unrelated projects.
