How to create prereleases for feature branches?

[wood-jp]

I'm using the Github Action, but willing to try other things. Here's what I have now (note that develop is the default branch):

name: Release
on:
  workflow_dispatch:
  push:
    branches:
      - develop
      - feature/*

permissions:
  contents: read # for checkout

env:
  BRANCH_NAME: ${{ github.head_ref || github.ref_name }}

jobs:
  release:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Release
    if: ${{ github.ref == 'refs/heads/develop' }} # full release only on develop branch
    permissions:
      contents: write # to be able to publish a GitHub release
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
      - name: Setup Go
        uses: actions/setup-go@v3
        with:
          go-version: 1.24
      - name: Execute Release
        uses: go-semantic-release/action@v1
        with:
          github-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          force-bump-patch-version: true
          changelog-generator-opt: "emojis=true"
          prerelease: false

  pre-release:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Pre-Release
    if: ${{ github.ref != 'refs/heads/develop' }} # full release only on develop branch
    permissions:
      contents: write # to be able to publish a GitHub release
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
      - name: Setup Go
        uses: actions/setup-go@v3
        with:
          go-version: 1.24
      - name: Execute Release
        uses: go-semantic-release/action@v1
        with:
          github-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          force-bump-patch-version: true
          changelog-generator-opt: "emojis=true"
          prerelease: true # full release only on develop branch

And what I'm trying to accomplish is:

1. A proper release should happen when a merge is done to the develop branch. This works as expected.
2. A pre-release should happen when a merge is done to any branch named feature/*. I want the tag to be vX.X.X-yyy.Z where:

• vX.X.X is the most recent full release tag on which the feature branch is based.
• yyy is an alphanumeric string that I can pass (I would base this on the branch name).
• Z is an auto-incrementing integer for each such prerelease.

I have played around with the custom-arguments passing --maintained-version of various kinds, but I am not having much success. Reading other issues has not been helpful either.
