About:
Ghr is a command-line tool designed to create GitHub releases and upload artifacts in parallel, significantly speeding up the distribution process. It is particularly useful for continuous integration pipelines that need to attach multiple build artifacts to a single release tag efficiently.
Key Features:
  • Parallel uploads for faster artifact distribution
  • Automatic GitHub Release creation
  • Simple CLI integration for CI/CD pipelines
  • Support for draft releases and custom discussion categories
Use Cases:
  • Uploading compiled binaries from CI builds to GitHub Releases
  • Distributing Docker images or checksum files alongside source code releases
Alternatives:
  • gh – The official GitHub CLI offers release management but lacks native parallel upload optimization for multiple large files.
  • hub – Hub provides broader GitHub interaction but is often slower for specific release artifact tasks compared to ghr's focused approach.
