Build a project as a self-executable compressed PHAR and increase project major version:

```
    caveman.phar build [mamuph project path] -x -z --inc-major

```

Modify project version:

```
    caveman.phar inc-major [mamuph project path]
    caveman.phar inc-minor [mamuph project path]
    caveman.phar dec-major [mamuph project path]
    caveman.phar dec-minor [mamuph project path]

```
