fix(ci): resolve release notes attribution via GitHub API - #325
Conversation
- Resolve "by @user" from the repo's merged PR list with one `gh pr list --json number,author,mergeCommit` call (squash SHA -> PR -> author login) instead of guessing the username from the commit author email; the subject "(#N)" and a relaxed noreply-email regex remain as fallbacks for direct pushes. - Separate git log fields with 0x1F so author names containing "|" cannot shift columns and leak emails into titles (v2.34.6 notes bug). - Reset per-commit state in the parsing loop, add pull-requests: read permission and GH_TOKEN for gh, and degrade gracefully with a warning when the API call fails.

Pass the tag name through the shell environment.
A valid tag such as v$(command) matches the workflow trigger. GitHub expands ${{ github.ref_name }} before the shell parses the script, so command substitution executes inside the double-quoted assignment. The command inherits GH_TOKEN, which contains secrets.PAT.

Auto-generated release notes can misattribute entries or drop the
by @userline entirely. In the v2.34.6 release, a commit author namedHiroa | 拾雨broke the|-delimited field parsing of the notes script and leaked the author email2386319623@qq.cominto a title, and contributors whose commits carry a personal email (e.g. QQ mail) never get attributed because the script guessed the GitHub username from the commit email. This PR resolves attribution from GitHub itself (the repo's merged PR list) instead of parsing git emails, and hardens the field parsing.Type of change
