Squash Merge PR on beta does not trigger release

[severinlandolt]

Hi everyone, Severin from @tremorlabs here.

Problem: After squash merging a PR on my beta branch, no release is triggered (here's the PR)

• There was a feat: tag in the commit message
• My package.json has the correct branches for prerelease

"release": {
    "branches": [
      "main",
      {
        "name": "beta",
        "prerelease": true
      },
      {
        "name": "beta-*",
        "prerelease": true
      }
    ],
    "plugins": [
      [
        "@semantic-release/commit-analyzer",
        {
          "preset": "conventionalcommits",
          "releaseRules": [
            {
              "type": "build",
              "release": "minor"
            }
          ]
        }
      ],
      "@semantic-release/npm",
      "@semantic-release/github"
    ]
  }

This might be relevant too:
https://github.com/tremorlabs/tremor/blob/beta/.github/workflows/release.yaml

After reading the documentation again, I cannot tell what is missing for a beta release to happen.

Any help is appreciated!

looks like a release was created here: https://github.com/tremorlabs/tremor/releases/tag/v3.8.0-beta.1. please provide more detail about what you are suggesting is missing

npm dist-tags ls @tremor/react also shows that the current version published the the beta channel is beta: 3.8.0-beta.1
