- Fail run if files setting contains invalid patterns [#384](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/384) via [@rpdelaney](https://github.com/rpdelaney)
- Add support for proxy env variables (don't use node-fetch) [#386](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/386/) via [@timor-raiman](https://github.com/timor-raiman)
- Suppress confusing warning when input_files is empty [#389](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/389) via [@Drowze](https://github.com/Drowze)
-`2.0.0`!? this release corrects a disjunction between git tag versions used in the marketplace and versions list this file. Previous versions should have really been 1.\*. Going forward this should be better aligned.
- Upgrade action.yml declartion to node20 to address deprecations
- provides an new workflow input option `generate_release_notes` which when set to true will automatically generate release notes for you based on GitHub activity [#179](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/179). Please see the [GitHub docs for this feature](https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/releasing-projects-on-github/automatically-generated-release-notes) for more information
- fix bug leading to empty strings subsituted for inputs users don't provide breaking api calls [#144](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/144)
- address recent warnings in assert upload api as well as introduce asset upload overrides, allowing for multiple runs for the same release with the same named asserts [#134](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/134)
- fix backwards compatibility with `GITHUB_TOKEN` resolution. `GITHUB_TOKEN` is no resolved first from an env varibale and then from and input [#133](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/133)
This is a release catch up have a hiatus. Future releases will happen more frequently
- Add 'fail_on_unmatched_files' input, useful for catching cases were your `files` input does not actually match what you expect [#55](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/55)
- Add `repository` input, useful for creating a release in an external repository [#61](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/61)
- Add release `id` to outputs, useful for refering to release in workflow steps following the step that uses this action [#60](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/60)
- Add `upload_url` as action output, useful for managing uploads separately [#75](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/75)
- Support custom `target_commitish` value, useful to customize the default [#76](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/76)
- fix `body_path` input first then fall back on `body` input. this was the originally documented precedence but was implemened the the opposite order! [#85](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/85)
- Retain original release info if the keys are not set, useful for filling in blanks for a release you've already started separately [#109](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/109)
- Limit number of times github api request to create a release is retried, useful for avoiding eating up your rate limit and action minutes do to either an invalid token or other circumstance causing the api call to fail [#111](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/111)
GitHub's api doesn't explicitly have a way of fetching a draft release by tag name which caused draft releases to appear as separate releases when used in a build matrix.
GitHub actions inputs don't inherently support lists of things and one might like to append a list of files to include in a release. Previously this was possible using a comma-delimited list of asset path patterns to upload. You can now provide these as a newline delimieted list for better readability
- Add support for prerelease annotated GitHub releases with the new input field `with.prerelease: true` [#19](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/19)
