Cannot get the assets uploaded properly for a release

Here is my semantic-release configuration in package.json:

  "plugins": [
    "@semantic-release/commit-analyzer",
    "@semantic-release/release-notes-generator",
    [
      "@semantic-release/github",
      {
        "assets": [
          "out"
        ]
      }
    ]
  ]

Upon a commit with the message: fix(ci): Message here I get the following output:

The release gets generated, but the assets (neither the .zip nor the .tar.gz) do not include the contents of the out directory.

I feel like I’m missing something really obvious here?

EDIT: Just to clarify, what I expect to happen is that all the files in the out directory get bundled into the .zip and .tar.gz files and uploaded with the release. I have also tried the glob out/**

I think semantic-release is logging its configuration when you run semantic-release withe the --debug flag, that’d have probably pointed you to the right direction.

@gr2m That’s ultimately how I tracked it down. Thanks!
