+## 2.5.3
+
+`2.5.3` is a patch release focused on the remaining path-handling and release-selection bugs uncovered after `2.5.2`.
+It fixes `#639`, `#571`, `#280`, `#614`, `#311`, `#403`, and `#368`.
+It also adds documentation clarifications for `#541`, `#645`, `#542`, `#393`, and `#411`,
+where the current behavior is either usage-sensitive or constrained by GitHub platform limits rather than an action-side runtime bug.
+
+If you still hit an issue after upgrading, please open a report with the bug template and include a minimal repro or sanitized workflow snippet where possible.
+
+## What's Changed
+
+### Bug fixes 🐛
+
+* fix: prefer token input over GITHUB_TOKEN by @chenrui333 in https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/751
+* fix: clean up duplicate drafts after canonicalization by @chenrui333 in https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/753
+* fix: support Windows-style file globs by @chenrui333 in https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/754
+* fix: normalize refs-tag inputs by @chenrui333 in https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/755
+* fix: expand tilde file paths by @chenrui333 in https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/756
+
+### Other Changes 🔄
+
+* docs: clarify token precedence by @chenrui333 in https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/752
+* docs: clarify GitHub release limits by @chenrui333 in https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/758
+* documentation clarifications for empty-token handling, `preserve_order`, and special-character asset filename behavior
+
+## 2.5.2
+
+`2.5.2` is a patch release focused on the remaining release-creation and prerelease regressions in the `2.5.x` bug-fix cycle.
+It fixes `#705`, fixes `#708`, fixes `#740`, fixes `#741`, and fixes `#722`.
+Regression testing covers the shared-tag race, prerelease event behavior, dotfile asset labels,
+same-filename concurrent uploads, and blocked-tag cleanup behavior.
+
+If you still hit an issue after upgrading, please open a report with the bug template and include a minimal repro or sanitized workflow snippet where possible.
+
+## What's Changed
+
+### Bug fixes 🐛
+
+* fix: canonicalize releases after concurrent create by @chenrui333 in https://github.com/softprops/action-gh-release/pull/746

+
+## 2.5.1
+
+`2.5.1` is a patch release focused on regressions introduced in `2.5.0` and on release lookup reliability.
+It fixes `#713`, addresses `#703`, and fixes `#724`. Regression testing shows that
+current `master` no longer reproduces the finalize-race behavior reported in `#704` and `#709`.

If you're using PowerShell, you can do this with `$Path = $Path -replace '\\','/'`

The value must be a category that already exists in the repository.

If name is specified, the specified name will be used; otherwise, a name will be automatically generated. If body is specified, the body will be pre-pended to the automatically generated notes. See the [GitHub docs for this feature](https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/releasing-projects-on-github/automatically-generated-release-notes) for more information |
 | `append_body`              | Boolean | Append to existing body instead of overwriting it                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
+| `make_latest`              | String  | Specifies whether this release should be set as the latest release for the repository. Drafts and prereleases cannot be set as latest. Can be `true`, `false`, or `legacy`.
