Release workflow does not work with non-squash commits

[jonaslagoni]

Describe the bug

If you have a long-lived branch such as next, and master is updated you will have to do a merge commit (not squash) when updating next with the latest master changes, otherwise you will have to solve the same merge conflicts over and over again. The problem is this approach means that the release workflow will not work.

A workaround is that when you do the merge you have to use fix or feat as commit message (on the local branch) otherwise the release workflow wont be triggered.
