Description

Summary of the new feature / enhancement

Right now, the Microsoft.PowerShell.PSResourceGet module has not reached GA with version 1.0.0 as stable. The current version is 0.5.22-beta22. Since this module does not have any stable versions it causes issues with installing #1247 and creating modules that requires PSResourceGet as they cannot be published #1250.

Please remove the -beta22 prerelease version from this module as since you're following semver any version below 1.0.0 is considered prerelease. These Microsoft modules have adopted this versioning scheme: WinGet and TextUtility.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Remove prerelease labels while this module is not GA.

Research direction

The issue identifies the Microsoft.PowerShell.PSResourceGet module and its current 0.5.22-beta22 version, but names no files or tests. Start by locating the module version declaration and release or packaging configuration, then verify how the published version is produced. Done means the prerelease label is removed without making the module appear GA.
