This allows DETACHED HEAD tags to properly generate the RELEASE notes.
Otherwise it will always try to generate the full release notes from multiple tags

for now I've ended up using https://github.com/mikepenz/release-changelog-builder-action to generate the proper changelogs. it's a really nice action.

this is how my steps looks like if somebody just wants to copy paste it and don't spend too much time on it 😂

jobs:
    deploy:
        name: Create release

        runs-on: ubuntu-latest

        permissions:
            contents: write
            deployments: write
            pull-requests: read

        steps:
            - name: 'Build Changelog'
              id: build_changelog
              uses: mikepenz/release-changelog-builder-action@v4
              with:
                  token: '${{ github.token }}'

            - name: Create GitHub release
              uses: softprops/action-gh-release@v1
              with:
                  body: ${{steps.build_changelog.outputs.changelog}}

@softprops is this a feature that you intend to add? As there is a considerable amount of 👍 on the issue for this feature I'm curious if we should wait or to find a workaround.
