Automatically create SemVer compliant releases based on PR labels.

Assuming that a PR is tagged with a "semver-compliant" label (patch, minor or major), then this action can create a tag and a GitHub release when it is merged.

Note: to determine the base tag for the increment, this action will try to find the most recent tag complying to SemVer. No additional setup is required.

Required Branch to tag. Default "master".

Required Release strategy. Default "release" (release: creates a GitHub release ; tag: creates a lightweight tag ; none: computes the next SemVer version but does not create a release or tag).

Optional Format used to create tags. Default "v%major%.%minor%.%patch%".

Optional Tag to use. If left undefined, it will be computed using the tags already present in the repository.

Optional Optional url to github enterprise api endpoint.

Optional Optional url to github enterprise uploads endpoint.

Optional Custom git commit sha for github release.

The newly created tag.
