Can we automate the creation of releases when we merge a PR where we bump the version?

Mosè Giordano (Oct 28 2025 at 13:12):

You mean something like https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/TagBot?

Mason Protter (Oct 28 2025 at 13:26):

I think he means automate pinging @juliaregistrator register when you change the version in the Project.toml file

Mason Protter (Oct 28 2025 at 13:27):

so one step before TagBot if I understand correctly

Mosè Giordano (Oct 28 2025 at 13:31):

In that case you can have a workflow triggered by edits to the Project.toml on the default branch, check if the version in the Project is already registered, and if not then call juliaregistrator

Mosè Giordano (Oct 28 2025 at 13:31):

But you'll also need to find a way to pass changelog information

Mason Protter (Oct 28 2025 at 13:36):

You could have the action take the changelog info from the commit that changes the version field, and you could have a test that runs that gives a failure if you open a PR that changes the version without having a changelog entry

Thanks :blush:. Another question - Can Copilot help write release notes when we call
@JuliaRegistrator?
