Release-Please PR Workflow
When to Use This Skill
| Use this skill when... | Use the alternative when... |
|---|---|
| Iteratively merging multiple release-please PRs in a monorepo | Use release-please-configuration to fix the upstream config that produced them |
| Resolving conflicts between sibling release PRs by closure/recreation | Use git-conflicts for ordinary feature-PR merge conflicts |
Coordinating sequential merges when separate-pull-requests: true |
Use git-fix-pr if individual release PRs have failing CI checks |
| Reducing the open release PR queue after a burst of releasable commits | Use release-please-protection to detect manual edits to changelog/version files |
Expert knowledge for managing release-please PRs in monorepos, including batch merging, conflict handling, and iterative processing.
Core Workflow
Release-please creates separate PRs per component in monorepos (when separate-pull-requests: true). These PRs often need sequential merging due to shared manifest file updates.
