gt-release-edit - Edit releases

gt release edit <tag>... [flags]

Edit the title, notes, tag, target, draft or prerelease state of releases. Without flags on a terminal, a form starts from the current values of each release and only what it changes is sent. In a clone, a target that is no branch on the server, such as HEAD or a short SHA, names the commit it resolves to in the clone.
