v2.5.3

2.5.3 is a patch release focused on the remaining path-handling and release-selection bugs uncovered after 2.5.2. It fixes [#639](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/639), [#571](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/571), [#280](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/280), [#614](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/614), [#311](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/311), [#403](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/403), and [#368](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/368). It also adds documentation clarifications for [#541](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/541), [#645](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/645), [#542](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/542), [#393](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/393), and [#411](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/411), where the current behavior is either usage-sensitive or constrained by GitHub platform limits rather than an action-side runtime bug.

If you still hit an issue after upgrading, please open a report with the bug template and include a minimal repro or sanitized workflow snippet where possible.

v2.5.2

2.5.2 is a patch release focused on the remaining release-creation and prerelease regressions in the 2.5.x bug-fix cycle.

Changelog

Sourced from softprops/action-gh-release's changelog.

2.6.1

2.6.1 is a patch release focused on restoring linked discussion thread creation when discussion_category_name is set. It fixes [#764](https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/issues/764), where the draft-first publish flow stopped carrying the discussion category through the final publish step.

If you still hit an issue after upgrading, please open a report with the bug template and include a minimal repro or sanitized workflow snippet where possible.

2.6.0

2.6.0 is a minor release centered on previous_tag support for generate_release_notes, which lets workflows pin GitHub's comparison base explicitly instead of relying on the default range. It also includes the recent concurrent asset upload recovery fix, a working_directory docs sync, a checked-bundle freshness guard for maintainers, and clearer immutable-prerelease guidance where GitHub platform behavior imposes constraints on how prerelease asset uploads can be published.

If you still hit an issue after upgrading, please open a report with the bug template and include a minimal repro or sanitized workflow snippet where possible.

[metal3-io-bot]

Hi @dependabot[bot]. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a metal3-io member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work.

Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.
