ci(release): exit changeset pre mode before snapshot prerelease#3665
Merged
Conversation
The prerelease snapshot path fails with 'Snapshot release is not allowed in pre mode' whenever main carries an active .changeset/pre.json (e.g. during an in-progress RC cycle). Conditionally run 'changeset pre exit' before the snapshot step so the prerelease job can produce snapshot versions without affecting the persisted pre-mode state on main.
