Updated the release workflow to prepare a clean release branch by copying necessary files to a temporary directory and then resetting the branch to avoid residue from previous commits. This ensures only the relevant files are included in the release, enhancing the integrity and clarity of the release branch.
Simplified the workflow by eliminating the creation and usage of a temporary branch for releasing. Changes are now directly committed and pushed to the release branch, streamlining the process and reducing complexity.
Introduced a temporary branch for release preparation steps before merging into the release branch. This isolates changes such as file removals and modifications until all updates are ready, improving workflow clarity and reducing risk of conflicts. After merging, the temp branch is deleted to keep the repository clean.
Reordered the Git checkout command to occur after removing the unwanted files. This ensures that the cleanup operations are performed on the correct branch and reflect in the release process accurately.
Reordered steps in the release workflow to checkout the release branch and remove unwanted files before staging changes. This change ensures that the files removed reflect the current state of the release branch, avoiding potential inconsistencies during the release process.
Updated the release workflow to also remove package-lock.json when creating a temporary branch. This ensures that any changes to dependencies are not carried over inadvertently during the release process.
Added step to delete .gitignore before staging new and modified files in the CreateRelease workflow. Ensures .gitignore does not interfere with the release processes and file staging operations.
Configured the GitHub Actions workflow to include the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable during the release process. This ensures secure authentication when pushing changes to the release branch. Additionally, reordered the checkout and commit commands for better sequencing.
Removed unnecessary git stash operations during release branch checkout. This streamlines the workflow by only focusing on switching to the release branch and adding the required files, which reduces potential complications and speeds up the release preparation process.
Refined workflow to ensure smoother updates to the release branch. Added steps to stash and apply local changes to prevent conflicts. Provided specific commands to checkout and update the release branch correctly. This approach maintains the branch's integrity and ensures all modifications are properly committed and pushed.
Streamlined the branch checkout process by switching to `release --no-checkout` and added the push operation to the release branch. This improves the workflow efficiency and ensures the release branch is updated consistently.
Updated the CreateRelease workflow to replace deprecated "::set-output" commands with the newer "$GITHUB_OUTPUT" syntax. This ensures compatibility with the latest GitHub Actions practices and enhances readability of the workflow script.
Added conditional logic to skip unnecessary release steps if the version tag already exists or if the version hasn't changed. This optimization avoids redundant operations by ensuring release-related jobs are executed only when needed, thus enhancing workflow efficiency.
Updated the release workflow to exit with status 1 instead of 0 when a version tag already exists or the version hasn't changed. This adjustment ensures the workflow stops for these error conditions, preventing unintended behavior or false success indications. Added `continue-on-error: true` to allow subsequent steps despite these non-critical errors.
Added a check to ensure the version already exists as a tag before creating a new release. This prevents creating duplicate releases and refines the version comparison logic by changing the exit status to 0 when the version hasn't changed.
Upgraded the project version to 0.0.8. Updated various dev dependencies, specifically @typescript-eslint packages and eslint-plugin-jsdoc, to their latest versions. Replaced @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin with @stylistic/eslint-plugin to ensure compatibility and improved linting. These changes enhance code quality and tool efficiency.
Added `src` folder and `tsconfig.json` to the release preparation to ensure all necessary files are included. Uncommented the deletion of the temporary branch to streamline the workflow. Set releases to be marked as prereleases automatically. Updated version in `package.json` to 0.0.5 and included a `files` field to specify which files to include in the package.
### Details
Disabled the step for deleting the temporary branch in the release workflow by commenting out the relevant lines. This adjustment prevents potential issues caused by branch deletion during the release process and ensures the stability of the workflow until a more robust solution is implemented.
Added steps to set the Git user name and email in the release workflow. This ensures that commits made by the workflow are correctly attributed to GitHub Actions, preventing potential issues with commit authorship.
Updated the GitHub Actions CreateRelease workflow to use `git reset` instead of `git rm -rf`, ensuring the `.gitignore` file is removed. Simplifies the preparation of files for release and prevents the removal of unexpected files.
Switched `git reset --hard` to `git rm -rf .` followed by a target-specific `git reset` in the release workflow. This change ensures only the necessary files (README.md, package.json, LICENSE, dist/**) are retained for the temp release branch, improving the accuracy of release preparation.
Added the creation of a temporary branch to stage release files before tagging, ensuring a clean release environment. Adjusted the tag creation process and included steps to delete the temporary branch post-tagging. Updated `package.json` to version 0.0.3 and set module type for better compatibility.
Modified the workflow to exit with code 1 instead of 0 when the version has not changed. This prevents the release job from being considered successful when no new release is created, improving the accuracy of pipeline status.
Commented out the file uploads section in the CreateRelease GitHub Action workflow. This prevents specified files from being included in the release, likely streamlining the release process or addressing issues with file attachments.
Introduced a GitHub Actions workflow to automate release creation upon pushes to the main branch, enhancing CI/CD efficiency. Updated the pull request workflow to support manual triggers. Adjusted Jest's coverage thresholds from 80% to 70% to reflect current testing standards. Added "types" field in package.json for TypeScript declarations. Created an empty README.md.
