Problem to solve

I’m trying to implement the release flow.

After the user adds a tag vX.X.X.X such as v7.0.0.0 or v7.2.1.1.

The .gitlab-ci.yml will start collecting the changelog. However the changelog result will be null because the tag format is incorrect.

The following is the result of the pipeline:

The following is the result I try to use the API to get the changelog:

I’m already set the tag_regex as

'v(?P<major>0|[1-9]\d*)\.(?P<minor>0|[0-9]\d*)\.(?P<patch>0|[0-9]\d*)\.(?P<bug>0|[1-9]\d*)'

in the file changelog_config.yml

is there any setting I missing?

Configuration

the following is my .gitlab-ci.yml:

I’ve also hit this issue… Was there any way to get it working?

It seems that the GitLab Changelog API does not support the “Major.Minor.Patch.Build” versioning format. This kind of versioning is commonly used in desktop apps, so it would be great if it could be supported!
