NAME

       glab-release-create - Create a new or update a GitLab Release for a repository

SYNOPSIS

       glab release create  [...] [flags]

DESCRIPTION

       Create a new or update a GitLab Release for a repository.

       If the release already exists, glab updates the release with the new info provided.

       If a Git tag specified does not yet exist, the release will automatically get created from
       the latest state of the default branch and tagged with the specified tag name.  Use  --ref
       to  override  this.   The ref can be a commit SHA, another tag name, or a branch name.  To
       fetch the new tag locally after the release, do git fetch --tags origin.

       To create a release from an annotated Git tag, first create one locally with Git, push the
       tag to GitLab, then run this command.

       Developer level access to the project is required to create a release.

              Non-interactively create a release by specifying a note
              $ glab release create v1.0.1 --notes "bugfix release"

              Use release notes from a file
              $ glab release create v1.0.1 -F changelog.md

              Upload a release asset with a display name (type will default to 'other')
              $ glab release create v1.0.1 '/path/to/asset.zip#My display label'

              Upload a release asset with a display name and type
              $ glab release create v1.0.1 '/path/to/asset.png#My display label#image'

              Upload all assets in a specified folder (types will default to 'other')
              $ glab release create v1.0.1 ./dist/*

              Upload all tarballs in a specified folder (types will default to 'other')
              $ glab release create v1.0.1 ./dist/*.tar.gz
