Release Notes

softprops/action-gh-release (softprops/action-gh-release)

v2.6.1

Compare Source

2.6.1 is a patch release focused on restoring linked discussion thread creation when
discussion_category_name is set. It fixes #764, where the draft-first publish flow
stopped carrying the discussion category through the final publish step.

If you still hit an issue after upgrading, please open a report with the bug template and include a minimal repro or sanitized workflow snippet where possible.

What's Changed

Bug fixes 🐛

• fix: preserve discussion category on publish by @​chenrui333 in #​765

v2.6.0

Compare Source

2.6.0 is a minor release centered on previous_tag support for generate_release_notes,
which lets workflows pin GitHub's comparison base explicitly instead of relying on the default range.
It also includes the recent concurrent asset upload recovery fix, a working_directory docs sync,
a checked-bundle freshness guard for maintainers, and clearer immutable-prerelease guidance where
GitHub platform behavior imposes constraints on how prerelease asset uploads can be published.

If you still hit an issue after upgrading, please open a report with the bug template and include a minimal repro or sanitized workflow snippet where possible.
