Release Action

Release GitHub action with semantic-release.

All assets built in the dist dir for branch <branch> are released in the branch release/<branch>. Git tags vx.x.x and vx are also created for the default branch.

Preset used is conventional-changelog-conventionalcommits.

tag version format

Warning! Do no mix'n'match tag formats within a single repo!

If the latest release in a repo is 3.2.0 and you change the format to prefix the numbers with a v then the next release will be v1.0.0. i.e. There will be a parallel release channel... maybe this is what you want?

An optional tag-prefix input can be provided to control the format of the tag created.

The following example will create a release in the format X.Y.Z

      - uses: playstudios/action-release-action@v1
        with:
          repo-token: ${{ github.token }}
          tag-prefix: ''

The following example will create a release in the format mysuperrelease-X.Y.Z

      - uses: playstudios/action-release-action@v1
        with:
          repo-token: ${{ github.token }}
          tag-prefix: 'mysuperrelease-'

If tag-prefix is not included, the release format is vX.Y.Z
