Release prepare accepts nil version
The release prepare command now accepts a nil
version without the --security
option: /chatops release prepare
. This will be used to prepare patch releases under the extended maintenance policy. gitlab-org/release-tools!2098 (merged) modifies the underlying rake task, but when this command is run, a release issue and blog post MR will be opened for the next patch version of the last three released minor versions.
This MR should not be merged until the rake task it calls has been updated to support the nil
option: gitlab-org/release-tools!2098 (merged).
