Troubleshooting

  • Check your configuration file for Configuration

  • Check your Git tags match your tag_format; tags using other formats are ignored during calculation of the next version.

Increasing Verbosity

If you are having trouble with Python Semantic Release or would like to see additional information about the actions that it is taking, you can use the top-level cmd-main-option-verbosity option. This can be supplied multiple times to increase the logging verbosity of the cmd-main command or any of its subcommands during their execution. You can supply this as many times as you like, but supplying more than twice has no effect.

Supply cmd-main-option-verbosity once for INFO output, and twice for DEBUG.

For example:

semantic-release -vv version --print

Note

The cmd-main-option-verbosity option must be supplied to the top-level semantic-release command, before the name of any sub-command.

Warning

The volume of logs when using DEBUG verbosity may be significantly increased, compared to INFO or the default WARNING, and as a result executing commands with semantic-release may be significantly slower than when using DEBUG.

Note

The provided GitHub action sets the verbosity level to INFO by default.
