release-tagger

Automatically manage Github action releases by ensuring that a major release is always created or updated to point to the last minor/patch release.

Usage

Important

• Any single major version release decription would be overwritten by this action (i.e v2). In order to preserve the single major version release description you'll need to create a semantic version. (i.e v2.0.0)

name: Tag release

on:
  push:
    tags:
      - v*

jobs:
  test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Create or update major release tag
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - name: Run release-tagger
        uses: tj-actions/release-tagger@v4

Inputs
