I have my created my github token and set GITHUB_TOKEN value in my env, but I get to the "distributables" step which is strangely misspelled and then it dies. Its like its looking for a release version 1.0.2 which does not exist. I assume this publish action will create the release? Its very unclear how this works from the docs.

✔ Loading configuration                                                                      
    ✔ Making a squirrel distributable for win32/x64 [1m17s]
  ✔ Running postMake hook
    › Artifacts available at: ..\out\make
❯ Publishing distributables
  ✖ [publisher-github] Running the publish command
    › Not Found
    › Searching for target release: v1.0.2

An unhandled rejection has occurred inside Fe:
HttpError: Not Found
at ...console\node_modules\@octokit\request\dist-node\index.js:86:21
    at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5)

my repo is public, not sure what else I need to do here? The docs really don't provide much detail.

TY!

I was confused about the name and owner fields because the documentation does not fully explain that if you are using an , then name should be the name which was my issue here.

publishers: [
    {
      name: '@electron-fe/publisher-github',
      config: {
        repository: {
          owner: 'MyOrg',
          name: 'my-repo'
        },
        prerelease: false,
        draft: true
      }
    }
  ]
