3.0.0 is a major release that moves the action runtime from Node 20 to Node 24.
Use v3 on GitHub-hosted runners and self-hosted fleets that already support the
Node 24 Actions runtime. If you still need the last Node 20-compatible line, stay on
v2.6.2.
What's Changed
Other Changes 🔄
Move the action runtime and bundle target to Node 24
Update @types/node to the Node 24 line and allow future Dependabot updates
Keep the floating major tag on v3; v2 remains pinned to the latest 2.x release
2.6.1 is a patch release focused on restoring linked discussion thread creation when
discussion_category_name is set. It fixes [#764](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/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.
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.
