What versioning format does it support?

It strictly follows Semantic Versioning (X.Y.Z) to ensure compatibility and consistency across development pipelines.

Can it run automatically without my input?

No, for safety reasons, the release-prepare skill only executes upon explicit user instruction, such as 'prepare release' or 'release v1.2.0'.

How does it modify the CHANGELOG.md?

It detects the '[Unreleased]' section, renames it to the target version with the current date, updates comparison links, and adds a fresh '[Unreleased]' placeholder at the top.

Does this skill create a GitHub Pull Request?

No, this skill focuses on preparing the release branch and pushing changes. It is designed to work in tandem with GitHub Actions, which should handle the PR creation automatically.

What happens if I have uncommitted changes?

The skill performs a mandatory pre-flight check and will warn the user to address any uncommitted changes before proceeding with the release workflow.

部署与 DevOps

Automates the standardized preparation of software releases by updating changelogs and managing git release branches.

This skill streamlines the pre-release process for developers by automating repetitive tasks associated with versioning and documentation. It performs essential git pre-flight checks, validates semantic versioning, updates the CHANGELOG.md file from 'Unreleased' to the target version, and handles the necessary git operations to push changes to release branches. By integrating these steps into a single workflow, it ensures consistency and prevents common errors before handoff to CI/CD pipelines like GitHub Actions.
