module Liquid
  # increment is used in a place where one needs to insert a counter
  #     into a template, and needs the counter to survive across
  #     multiple instantiations of the template.
  #     (To achieve the survival, the application must keep the context)
  #
  #     if the variable does not exist, it is created with value 0.
  #
  #   Hello: {% increment variable %}
  #
  # gives you:
  #
  #    Hello: 0
  #    Hello: 1
  #    Hello: 2
  #
  class Increment < Tag
