Often it's not really required to release every week. Gitlab releases every month. Maybe that makes more sense? To release shortly after Gitlab's monthly release? |
Ok, makes sense 👍 Originally I was thinking so that people don't have to wait after things get merged as they are sometimes asking in PRs, but it might get too spammy for others like that. I'll change the cron for the end of the month. |

I've reworded this and made the cron schedule to be on the 28th of the month, that should give us a few days after the 22nd to add some popular features after a GitLab release. |
Adds an automated release
every weekonce a month + manual workflow if quick fixes are needed. I thought this would be a good compromise. I didn't want this on every push as otherwise all release notes just have only 1 PR entry and it's just really noisy. I see other people are also reconsidering that: renovatebot/renovate#9709.Also I just chose Monday so there's no Friday releases 🤣 but open to suggestions.
I tested this here (including all my derpy trial&error pushes):
https://github.com/nejch/python-gitlab-semantic-release
Resulting releases: https://github.com/nejch/python-gitlab-semantic-release/releases
testpypi package: https://test.pypi.org/project/python-gitlab/
changelog: https://github.com/nejch/python-gitlab-semantic-release/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md
I've also already set up the
PYPI_TOKENsecret here.Initially I wasn't a fan of the auto-committed
CHANGELOG.mdbut now I'm thinking it gives us a chance to consolidate the old changelog and release notes that are just sitting there since the GH Releases move. I can push another PR for that to add the old changes it to the new changelog.
