better-semantic-release

A drop-in fork of python-semantic-release with built-in release-safety guards.

---

better-semantic-release is a drop-in fork of python-semantic-release (MIT licensed). It keeps the same [tool.semantic_release] configuration schema, the same semantic-release CLI, and the same GitHub Action interface – switching over only requires pointing the uses: line at the fork:

uses: n24q02m/better-semantic-release@v<major>

On top of that, the fork adds release-safety guards that run automatically before any commit, tag, or push is made. Guards can be opted out of per-repository under the [tool.semantic_release.bsr] table in pyproject.toml.

How it differs from upstream

Behavior	Upstream (python-semantic-release)	better-semantic-release
Orphaned release-tag detection (a rebase or force-push silently freezes releases on a tag nobody notices)	None	Built-in, fails loud
Registry-collision detection (re-publishing a version that already exists on the target registry)	None	Built-in, fails closed
Config / CLI / GitHub Action interface	–	Identical (drop-in)
