git-release: Create and push a signed release.
$ git release ${tag_name} -s
try on your machine

The command git release ${tag_name} -s is not a Git built-in command. It seems like a custom command or an alias that is specific to the repository or your Git configuration.

In general, Git does not have a built-in command called "release," so it's likely that this command is a combination of other Git commands or a custom script. To understand the functionality of this command, we would need more information about how it is implemented in your environment.

Here's a breakdown of what the command could potentially do:

  • git release: This might be an alias or a custom script to trigger a release-related process.

  • ${tag_name}: It is a placeholder for the name of the Git tag that will be associated with the release. A Git tag is a way to mark specific points in Git history, often used to represent a release version.

  • -s: This flag could have a specific meaning within the custom implementation. Without more context, it's difficult to determine its exact purpose. In general, Git commands often use flags to modify the behavior of the command, so this could be doing something specific related to the release process.

To learn more about the specific functionality and purpose of this command, it's recommended to consult the repository documentation, Git configuration files, or the scripts/aliases defined in your environment.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
