 Whether to create releases from any tag or to treat some as snapshots. By default, all the tags with non-empty `prerelease` field (see [semver.org: Is there a suggested regular expression (RegEx) to check a SemVer string?](https://semver.org/#is-there-a-suggested-regular-expression-regex-to-check-a-semver-string)) are considered snapshots; neither a release is created nor assets are uploaded.

+In order to work around the reliability issues explained in section *Troubleshooting* above, option *use-gh-cli* allows
+using GitHub's official command line tool ([cli/cli](https://github.com/cli/cli)) for uploading/updating assets.

+IMPORTANT: Using this option requires the repository to be cloned (preferredly through [actions/checkout](https://github.com/actions/checkout)).
