(1)
Lightweight composite github action managing vX and vX.Y tags for a github action.
Designed to act upon created or edited github releases, action will create or override vX and vX.Y tags based on the provided tag.
Note
Action will also override the original tag (reference and the message stay as is though), in order to keep it as latest tag !
Otherwise, when creating a new github releases with an automatically generated changelog, vX or vX.Y tag will be picked as previous tag rather than the expected previous vX.Y.Z tag.
Important
- Do not forget to set
contents: writepermission ! - When action is used with another event than release creation (or edition), you must fill the
