automatic releases: tag being used instead of defined title

See original GitHub issue

Despite setting the title property under with, the action still seems to prefer simply bumping the pushed tag to a release instead.

Usage:

  release:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    needs: build
    steps:
      - name: Download Build Results
        uses: actions/download-artifact@v2
        with:
          name: libs
          path: buildfiles
        
      - name: Create Release
        uses: "marvinpinto/action-automatic-releases@latest"
        with:
          title: "Release ${{ github.event.release.tag_name }}"
          repo_token: "${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}"
          prerelease: false
          files: |
            CHANGELOG.txt
            LICENSE.txt
            buildfiles/*

@ldeluigi I’m sorry this project doesn’t live up to your standards. Your comment is kind of rude and a bit insulting to someone who does all this on their free time. That is not welcome here.

In addition to that, I couldn’t fix it (at that time) without creating myself a copy of this action (not a good idea) so I had to live with the bug (and this didn’t make me very happy)
