# Surface the release-please result so a caller can add release-only jobs.
# Every value is an empty string when this run did not cut a release, so gate
# with `if: ${{ needs.release.outputs.release_created }}` (where `release` is
# the caller's job that `uses:` this workflow).
# with `if: needs.release.outputs.release_created` (where `release` is the
# caller's job that `uses:` this workflow).
#
# Keep the `${{ }}` braces OUT of the descriptions below: GitHub evaluates
# expressions inside a workflow_call output description, and `needs` is out of
# scope there, so a braced example is an "invalid workflow file" at startup.
# A job-level `if:` needs no braces anyway.
