SYNOPSIS
    gcloud deploy releases create
        (RELEASE : --delivery-pipeline=DELIVERY_PIPELINE --region=REGION)
        [--annotations=[KEY=VALUE,...]] [--description=DESCRIPTION]
        [--gcs-source-staging-dir=GCS_SOURCE_STAGING_DIR]
        [--ignore-file=IGNORE_FILE] [--labels=[KEY=VALUE,...]]
        [--skaffold-file=SKAFFOLD_FILE] [--skaffold-version=SKAFFOLD_VERSION]
        [--source=SOURCE; default="."] [--to-target=TO_TARGET]
        [--build-artifacts=BUILD_ARTIFACTS | --images=[NAME=TAG,...]]
        [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION
    Creates a new release, delivery pipeline qualified.

EXAMPLES
    To create a release with source located at storage URL
    gs://bucket/object.zip and the first rollout in the first target of the
    promotion sequence:

        $ gcloud deploy releases create my-release \
           --source=`gs://bucket/object.zip` \
           --delivery-pipeline=my-pipeline --region=us-central1

    To create a release with source located at current directory and deploy a
    rollout to target prod :

        $ gcloud deploy releases create my-release \
            --delivery-pipeline=my-pipeline --region=us-central1 \
            --to-target=prod

    The current UTC date and time on the machine running the gcloud command can
    also be included in the release name by adding $DATE and $TIME parameters:

        $ gcloud deploy releases create 'my-release-$DATE-$TIME' \
            --delivery-pipeline=my-pipeline --region=us-central1

        If the current UTC date and time is set to 2021-12-21 12:02, then the created release
        will have its name set as my-release-20211221-1202.

        When using these parameters, please be sure to wrap the release name in single quotes
        or else the template parameters will be overriden by environment variables.

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
     Release resource - The name of the Release. The arguments in this group
     can be used to specify the attributes of this resource. (NOTE) Some
     attributes are not given arguments in this group but can be set in other
     ways. To set the project attribute:
      ◆ provide the argument release on the command line with a fully
        specified name;
      ◆ provide the argument --project on the command line;
      ◆ set the property core/project.

     This must be specified.

       RELEASE
          ID of the release or fully qualified identifier for the release. To
          set the release attribute:
          ▸ provide the argument release on the command line.

          This positional must be specified if any of the other arguments in
          this group are specified.

       --delivery-pipeline=DELIVERY_PIPELINE
          The delivery pipeline associated with the release. Alternatively, set
          the property [deploy/delivery-pipeline]. To set the delivery-pipeline
          attribute:
          ▸ provide the argument release on the command line with a fully
            specified name;
          ▸ provide the argument --delivery-pipeline on the command line;
          ▸ set the property deploy/delivery_pipeline.

       --region=REGION
          The Cloud region for the release. Alternatively, set the property
          [deploy/region]. To set the region attribute:
          ▸ provide the argument release on the command line with a fully
            specified name;
          ▸ provide the argument --region on the command line;
          ▸ set the property deploy/region.

FLAGS
     --annotations=[KEY=VALUE,...]
        Annotations to apply to the release. Annotations take the form of
        key/value string pairs.

        Examples:

        Add annotations:

            $ gcloud deploy releases create \
                --annotations="from_target=test,status=stable"

     --description=DESCRIPTION
        Description of the release.

     --gcs-source-staging-dir=GCS_SOURCE_STAGING_DIR
        A directory in Google Cloud Storage to copy the source used for staging
        the build. If the specified bucket does not exist, Cloud Deploy will
        create one. If you don't set this field,
        gs://[PROJECT_ID]_clouddeploy/source is used.

     --ignore-file=IGNORE_FILE
        Override the .gcloudignore file and use the specified file instead.

     --labels=[KEY=VALUE,...]
        Labels to apply to the release. Labels take the form of key/value
        string pairs.

        Examples:

        Add labels:

            $ gcloud deploy releases create --labels="commit=abc123,author=foo"

     --skaffold-file=SKAFFOLD_FILE
        Path of the skaffold file relative to the source directory.

        Examples:

        Use Skaffold file:

            $ gcloud deploy releases create --source=/home/user/source \
                --skaffold-file=config/skaffold.yaml

            The skaffold file absolute file path is expected to be:
            /home/user/source/config/skaffold.yaml

     --skaffold-version=SKAFFOLD_VERSION
        Version of the Skaffold binary.

     --source=SOURCE; default="."
        The location of the source that contains skaffold.yaml. The location
        can be a directory on a local disk or a gzipped archive file (.tar.gz)
        in Google Cloud Storage. If the source is a local directory, this
        command skips the files specified in the --ignore-file. If
        --ignore-file is not specified, use.gcloudignore file. If a
        .gcloudignore file is absent and a .gitignore file is present in the
        local source directory, gcloud will use a generated Git-compatible
        .gcloudignore file that respects your .gitignored files. The global
        .gitignore is not respected. For more information on .gcloudignore, see
        gcloud topic gcloudignore.

     --to-target=TO_TARGET
        Specifies a target to deliver into upon release creation

     At most one of these can be specified:

       --build-artifacts=BUILD_ARTIFACTS
          Reference to a Skaffold build artifacts output file from skaffold
          build --file-output=BUILD_ARTIFACTS. If you aren't using Skaffold,
          use the --images flag below to specify the
          image-names-to-tagged-image references.

       --images=[NAME=TAG,...]
          Reference to a collection of individual image name to image full path
          replacements.

          For example:

              $ gcloud deploy releases create foo \
                  --images image1=path/to/image1:v1@sha256:45db24
