Releases

Pipeline jobs can create releases

…by adding the release keyword

Release assets can be linked but must be stored elsewhere

release uses release-cli internally

Container images are publicly available

registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/release-cli:v0.11.0

Runners using the shell executor must have release-cli installed

        name: Release ${CI_PIPELINE_IID}
        description: |
          Some multi
          line text
        ref: ${CI_COMMIT_SHA}
