gh-release-create - Create a new release
gh release create [<tag>] [<files>...]
Create a new GitHub Release for a repository.
A list of asset files may be given to upload to the new release. To define a display label for an asset, append text starting with # after the file name.
If a matching git tag does not yet exist, one will automatically get created from the latest state of the default branch. Use --target to point to a different branch or commit for the automatic tag creation. Use --verify-tag to abort the release if the tag doesn't already exist. To fetch the new tag locally after the release, do git fetch --tags origin.
To create a release from an annotated git tag, first create one locally with git, push the tag to GitHub, then run this command.
When using automatically generated release notes, a release title will also be automatically generated unless a title was explicitly passed. Additional release notes can be prepended to automatically generated notes by using the notes parameter.
