release-plz-0.3.27 is not a library.
Release-plz helps you release your Rust packages by automating:
- CHANGELOG generation (with git-cliff).
- Creation of GitHub/Gitea releases.
- Publishing to a cargo registry (
crates.ioby default). - Version bumps in
Cargo.toml.
Release-plz updates your packages with a release Pull Request based on:
- Your git history, following Conventional commits.
- API breaking changes (detected by cargo-semver-checks).
🤔 What's a Release PR?
Release-plz maintains Release PRs, keeping them up-to-date as you merge additional commits. When you're ready to create a release, simply merge the release PR.
When you merge the Release PR (or when you edit the Cargo.toml versions by yourself),
release-plz:
- Creates a git tag named
<package_name>-v<version>(e.g.tokio-v1.8.1). - Publishes the package to the cargo registry by running
cargo publish. - Publishes a GitHub/Gitea release based on the git tag.
