A bit more goodness to automate the release notes.
What we had, had some limitations:

  • Allow prerelease to be published.
  • Don't error when we release twice a day.
  • Include all authors of a PR.

Pull request overview

This PR enhances the Fantomas release pipeline automation to handle additional release scenarios and improve the release notes generation process. The changes address limitations with prerelease publishing, handling multiple releases per day, and including all PR commit authors in contributor attribution.

Key changes:

  • Added support for prerelease versions (alpha/beta) with automatic publishing and proper version formatting
  • Enhanced contributor attribution to extract authors from all commits in merged PRs rather than just PR authors
  • Added dry-run mode for testing the release pipeline locally without publishing
