Huge thanks for @nils-a for finding the underlying problem here. This didn’t come up in the initial testing that was done prior to shipping 0.12.0 due to the fact that I was testing with the .NET Global Tool version of GitReleaseManager. This problem that we are seeing here is specific to the Full Fat .NET Framework version of the tool that is shipped to NuGet.org namely this one:

https://www.nuget.org/packages/GitReleaseManager/

We are away to publish a v0.12.1 release of GitReleaseManager which should fix this problem.
