Ability to add other artifacts to the release commit

ATM, I’m amending because I want the produced artifacts to be part of the chore(release): x.x.x commit.

"prerelease": "webpack -p --bail", //produces some bundle artifacts that I want to commit
"release": "standard-version -s",
"postrelease": "git commit -a --amend --no-edit"

However, because of the way git works this creates a new commit object since the original commit is tagged before the amend happens. What would be nice is if my postrelease script was really a poststandard-version script (i.e. a “lifecycle-style” hook like the npm run script itself).

I think that --commit-all could potentially work for my usecase. It seems similar to what I’ve done with the built-in version script:

"version": "npm run build && git add -f dist/"

Then when npm’s versioning runs, it just commits the entire thing.

Yes, currently the commit-all flag just commits already staged changes. That might seem confusing, but I actually think it allows for greater control over the process. Needs to be clear in the documentation though. I’ll take a look at the pr soon when I’m on my comp.
