## Current Behavior
--graph stdout and --file stdout aren't documented. When printing graph
to stdout, its possible for some output to get missed.

## Expected Behavior
Existing flags are documented, and `--print` is more discoverable. We
await stdout finishing before exiting the program.

merged. -->

# release
Orchestrate versioning and publishing of applications and libraries
## Usage
```shell
nx release
```
Install `nx` globally to invoke the command directly using `nx`, or use `npx nx`, `yarn nx`, or `pnpm nx`.
## Shared Options
### dry-run
Type: `boolean`
Default: `false`
Preview the changes without updating files/creating releases
### first-release
Type: `boolean`
Indicates that this is the first release for the selected release group. If the current version cannot be determined as usual, the version on disk will be used as a fallback. This is useful when using git or the registry to determine the current version of packages, since those sources are only available after the first release. Also indicates that changelog generation should not assume a previous git tag exists and that publishing should not check for the existence of the package before running.
