Create a release based workflow that is built on the foundations of the GitHub flow.
One last step to go!
You updated the source code, but users can't readily access your most recent changes. Prepare a new release, and distribute that release to the necessary channels.
With descriptive pull requests and auto generated release notes, you don't have to spend a lot of time working on your release draft. Follow the steps below to create your new release, generate the release notes, and publish.
- In a separate tab, go to to the Releases page for this repository.
- Tip: To reach this page, click the Code tab at the top of your repository. Then, find the navigation bar below the repository description, and click the Releases heading link.
- Click the Draft a new release button.
- Set the Target branch to
main.- Tip: Practice your semantic version syntax. What should the tag and title for this release be?
- To the top right of the description text box, click Generate release notes.
- Review the release notes in the text box and customize the content if desired.
- Click Publish release.
- Wait about 20 seconds then refresh this page (the one you're following instructions from). GitHub Actions will automatically update to the next step.
