Cordova Hook to change name of generated builds and Push code to a new branch in git.

change_name.js

#!/usr/bin/env node

// This hook will do alot of things, you can take what you want and delete un necessary things.
// It pushes code to git, with version name as branch.
// It adds i and a in branch name to define android and ios.
// It renames the final IPA file with version code.
// It renames the final signed apk file with version code. 
// Hook to increment build number before making build. (https://gist.github.com/yawarsohail/b8d7762e4617a20b6f66fcffe6599920)
// You can see this link, on how I signed my apk using hooks. (https://gist.github.com/yawarsohail/1b2998d5cd860e01193cec86f6329223)
// Added below lines in script part of package.json to make build easy. (I think its prety easy, no need for description).
//    "release": "TARGET=ii ionic build ios --device --release && TARGET=aa ionic build --release android",
//    "release-a": "TARGET=a ionic build --release android",
//    "release-i": "TARGET=i ionic build ios --device --release"
//
// Save hook under `project-root/scripts`
//
// Don't forget to install xml2js using npm if it is not already installed.
// `$ npm install xml2js`
//
// Then add below line in config.xml inside widget.
// <hook src="scripts/change_name.js" type="after_build"/>
//
// Rest I'll be describing in code comments. I'll be changing my project name with imaginary name and might miss in some part.
//
// I am adding this for my self so that I can remember. And it may help others who wants to do same.
//
