+### `--allow-no-commit`
+
+Allow the project version to be bumped even when there's no eligible version. This is most useful when used with `--increment {MAJOR,MINOR,PATCH}` or `[MANUL_VERSION]`
+
+```sh
+# bump a minor version even when there's only bug fixes, documentation changes or even no commits
+cz bump --incremental MINOR --allow-no-commit
+
+# bump version to 2.0.0 even when there's no breaking changes changes or even no commits
+cz bump --allow-no-commit 2.0.0
