+[Here is a great tutorial](https://opensource.guide/how-to-contribute/#opening-a-pull-request) on how to send one :)

 Here is a summary of the steps to follow:

 1. [Set up the workspace](#set-up-the-workspace)
 2. If you cloned a while ago, get the latest changes from upstream and update dependencies:
+
 ```bash
 $ git checkout master
 $ git pull upstream master
 $ rm -rf node_modules
 $ npm install
 ```
+
 3. Create a new topic branch (off the main project development branch) to contain your feature, change, or fix:
+
 ```bash
 $ git checkout -b <topic-branch-name>
 ```
+
 4. Make your code changes, following the [Coding rules](#coding-rules)
 5. Push your topic branch up to your fork:
+
 ```bash
 $ git push origin <topic-branch-name>
 ```
+
 6. [Open a Pull Request](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request/#creating-the-pull-request) with a clear title and description.

 **Tips**:
+
 - For ambitious tasks, open a Pull Request as soon as possible with the `[WIP]` prefix in the title, in order to get feedback and help from the community.
- [Allow semantic-release maintainers to make changes to your Pull Request branch](https://help.github.com/articles/allowing-changes-to-a-pull-request-branch-created-from-a-fork). This way, we can rebase it and make some minor changes if necessary. All changes we make will be done in new commit and we'll ask for your approval before merging them.

 ## How does it work?

 ### Commit message format

-**semantic-release** uses the commit messages to determine the type of changes in the codebase. Following formalized conventions for commit messages, **semantic-release** automatically determines the next [semantic version](https://semver.org) number, generates a changelog and publishes the release.

-By default **semantic-release** uses [Angular Commit Message Conventions](https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/DEVELOPERS.md#-git-commit-guidelines). The commit message format can be changed with the [`preset` or `config` options](docs/usage/configuration.md#options) of the [@semantic-release/commit-analyzer](https://github.com/semantic-release/commit-analyzer#options) and [@semantic-release/release-notes-generator](https://github.com/semantic-release/release-notes-generator#options) plugins.

 Tools such as [commitizen](https://github.com/commitizen/cz-cli) or [commitlint](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/commitlint) can be used to help contributors and enforce valid commit messages.

 ### Automation with CI

-**semantic-release** is meant to be executed on the CI environment after every successful build on the release branch. This way no human is directly involved in the release process and the releases are guaranteed to be [unromantic and unsentimental](http://sentimentalversioning.org).

+This way no human is directly involved in the release process and the releases are guaranteed to be [unromantic and unsentimental](http://sentimentalversioning.org).

 ### Triggering a release

-For each new commits added to one of the release branches (for example `master`, `next`, `beta`), with `git push` or by merging a pull request or merging from another branch, a CI build is triggered and runs the `semantic-release` command to make a release if there are codebase changes since the last release that affect the package functionalities.

-**semantic-release** offers various ways to control the timing, the content and the audience of published releases. See example workflows in the following recipes:
- [Using distribution channels](docs/recipes/distribution-channels.md#publishing-on-distribution-channels)
- [Maintenance releases](docs/recipes/maintenance-releases.md#publishing-maintenance-releases)
- [Pre-releases](docs/recipes/pre-releases.md#publishing-pre-releases)

For example, it is best to always have a `verifyConditions` step because you may be receiving inputs from a user and want to make sure they exist. A plugin can abide by any of the following lifecycles:

- `verify`

+
+## Execution order
+
+For the lifecycles, the list at the top of the readme contains the order. If there are multiple plugins for the same lifecycle, then the order of the plugins determines the order in which they are executed.
+
+## Handling errors
+
+In order to be able to detect and handle errors properly, the errors thrown from the must be of type [SemanticReleaseError](https://github.com/semantic-release/error) or extend it as described in the package readme. This way the errors are handled properly and plugins using the `fail` lifecycle receive the errors correctly. For any other types of errors the internal error handling does nothing, lets them through up until the final catch and does not call any `fail` plugins.
+
+## Advanced
+
+Knowledge that might be useful for plugin developers.
+
+### Multiple analyzeCommits plugins
+
+While it may be trivial that multiple analyzeCommits (or any lifecycle plugins) can be defined, it is not that self-evident that the plugins executed AFTER the first one (for example, the default one: `commit-analyzer`) can change the result. This way it is possible to create more advanced rules or situations, e.g. if none of the commits would result in new release, then a default can be defined.
+
+The commit must be a known release type, for example the commit-analyzer has the following default types:
+
+- major
+- premajor
+- minor
+- preminor
+- patch
+- prepatch
+- prerelease
+
+If the analyzeCommits-lifecycle plugin does not return anything, then the earlier result is used, but if it returns a supported string value, then that overrides the previous result.

+## Multiple Node jobs configuration
+
+### `.circleci/config.yml` configuration for multiple Node jobs
+
+This example is a minimal configuration for **semantic-release** with tests running against Node 16 and 14.
+See [CircleCI documentation](https://circleci.com/docs/2.0) for additional configuration options.
+
+In this example, the [`circleci/node`](https://circleci.com/developer/orbs/orb/circleci/node) orb is imported (Which makes some node operations easier), then a `release` job is defined which will run `semantic-release`.
+
+To run our `release` job, we have created a workflow named `test_and_release` which will run two jobs, `node/test`, which comes from the node orb and will test our application, and our release job.
+Here, we are actually making use of [matrix jobs](https://circleci.com/blog/circleci-matrix-jobs/) so that our single `node/test` job will actually be executed twice, once for Node version 16, and once for version 14.
+Finally, we call our release job with a `requires` parameter so that `release` will run against the latest LTS version of node, only after `node/test` has successfully tested against v14 and v16.
+
+```yaml

+The [Authentication](../../usage/ci-configuration.md#authentication) environment variables can be configured with [Secret Variables](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/encrypted-secrets).

 In this example a publish type [`NPM_TOKEN`](https://docs.npmjs.com/creating-and-viewing-authentication-tokens) is required to publish a package to the npm registry. GitHub Actions [automatically populate](https://help.github.com/en/articles/virtual-environments-for-github-actions#github_token-secret) a [`GITHUB_TOKEN`](https://help.github.com/en/articles/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line) environment variable which can be used in Workflows.

+## npm provenance
+
+Since GitHub Actions is a [supported provider](https://docs.npmjs.com/generating-provenance-statements#provenance-limitations) for [npm provenance](https://docs.npmjs.com/generating-provenance-statements), it is recommended to enable this to increase supply-chain security for your npm packages.

 **Note**: Automatically populated `GITHUB_TOKEN` cannot be used if branch protection is enabled for the target branch.

Since Secret Variables are available for Workflows triggered by any branch, it becomes a potential vector of attack, where a Workflow triggered from a non-protected branch can expose and use a token with elevated permissions, yielding branch protection insignificant. One can use Personal Access Tokens in trusted environments, where all developers should have the ability to perform administrative actions in the given repository and branch protection is enabled solely for convenience purposes, to remind about required reviews or CI checks.

-## Can I use semantic-release with Yarn?
-
-If you are using a [local](../usage/installation.md#local-installation) **semantic-release** installation and run multiple CI jobs with different versions, the `yarn install` command will fail on jobs running with Node < 8 as **semantic-release** requires [Node >= 10.18](#why-does-semantic-release-require-node-version--1018) and specifies it in its `package.json`s [`engines`](https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package.json#engines) key.
-
-The recommended solution is to use the [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com) [--ignore-engines](https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/cli/install#toc-yarn-install-ignore-engines) option to install the project dependencies on the CI environment, so Yarn will ignore the **semantic-release**'s `engines` key:
-
-```bash
-$ yarn install --ignore-engines
-```
-
-**Note**: Several CI services use Yarn by default if your repository contains a `yarn.lock` file. So you should override the install step to specify `yarn install --ignore-engines`.
-
-Alternatively you can use a [global](../usage/installation.md#global-installation) **semantic-release** installation and make sure to install and run the `semantic-release` command only in a CI jobs running with Node >= 10.18.
-
-If your CI environment provides [nvm](https://github.com/creationix/nvm) you can switch to Node 8 before installing and running the `semantic-release` command:
-
-```bash
-$ nvm install 8 && yarn global add semantic-release && semantic-release
-```
-
-See the [CI configuration recipes](../recipes/README.md#ci-configurations) for more details on specific CI environments.
-
-As `semantic-release` is recommended to be executed with [`npx`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/npx) an alternative is required for usage with Yarn. Even though it is possible to install npx with Yarn, it's not recommended. Yarn and npx would be using different cache locations.
-
-For [local installation](../usage/installation.md#local-installation) replace
-`npx semantic-release` with `yarn run semantic-release`.

 #### Pushing to a release branch

 With the configuration `"branches": ["master", "next"]`, if the last release published from `master` is `1.0.0` and the last one from `next` is `2.0.0` then:
+
 - Only versions in range `1.x.x` can be published from `master`, so only `fix` and `feat` commits can be pushed to `master`
 - Once `next` get merged into `master` the release `2.0.0` will be made available on the channel associated with `master` and both `master` and `next` will accept any commit type

 This verification prevent scenario such as:
+
 1. Create a `feat` commit on `next` which triggers the release of version `1.0.0` on the `next` channel
 2. Merge `next` into `master` which adds `1.0.0` on the default channel
 3. Create a `feat` commit on `next` which triggers the release of version `1.1.0` on the `next` channel

 ### Pre-release branches

 A pre-release branch is a type of branch used by **semantic-release** that allows to publish releases with a [pre-release version](https://semver.org/#spec-item-9).
-Using a pre-release version allow to publish multiple releases with the same version. Those release will be differentiated via there identifiers (in `1.0.0-alpha.1` the identifier is `alpha.1`).
+Using a pre-release version allow to publish multiple releases with the same version. Those release will be differentiated via their identifiers (in `1.0.0-alpha.1` the identifier is `alpha.1`).
 This is useful when you need to work on a future major release that will include many breaking changes but you do not want to increment the version number for each breaking change commit.

 A pre-release branch is characterized by the `prerelease` property that defines the static part of the version released (in `1.0.0-alpha.1` the static part fo the identifier is `alpha`). The [`prerelease`](#prerelease) value of each pre-release branch must be unique across the project.

 When merging commits associated with an existing release, **semantic-release** will treat them as [pushed commits](#pushing-to-a-pre-release-branch) and publish a new release if necessary, but it will never add those releases to the distribution channel corresponding to the pre-release branch.
