Liquibase Change Types addAutoIncrement

The database provides auto Increment features to the column, in which its value increments as a new record inserted into the table. It is mainly used for the primary key or ID of the table.

Liquibase provides tags to make a column eligible for auto increment at creation time. Once a column is autoincrement, it's not required to provide value for the column while inserting the record, the database will check for the last value of the column and automatically provide a new value with an increment.
