mw gitlab release create

Create a new or update a GitLab Release for a repository

Synopsis

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.

mw gitlab release create <tag> [<files>...] [flags]
