v0.6.0

✨ Highlights

Reduced resource usage

releaser-pleaser now uses less resources:

  • It now skips pushing changes to the release pull request if they are only a rebase.
  • The configurations for GitHub Actions and GitLab CI/CD now makes sure that only a single job is running at the same time. On GitHub unnecessary/duplicate jobs are also automatically aborted.
  • It handles the stop signals from the CI environment and tries to exit quickly.

```yaml concurrency: group: releaser-pleaser cancel-in-progress: true ```

Avoid losing manual edits to release pull request

Before, releaser-pleaser was prone to overwriting user changes to the release pull request if they were made after releaser-pleaser already started running. There is now an additional check right before submitting the changes to see if the description changed, and retry if it did.

Proper commit authorship

Before, the release commits were created by releaser-pleaser <>. This was ugly to look at. We now check for details on the API user used to talk to the forge, and use that users details instead as the commit author. The committer is still releaser-pleaser.

Cleaner pre-release Release Notes
