Description
In our helm chart we are using a description that contains new lines.
https://github.com/philips-labs/helm-charts/blob/spire-0.2.1/charts/spire/Chart.yaml#L3
These are not handled when creating the Github release, causing all this information to end up on the same line.
https://github.com/philips-labs/helm-charts/releases/tag/spire-0.2.1
> ⚠️ Please note: we have manually updated our release descriptions in Github to resolve it for now.
Could this be caused by https://github.com/helm/helm/blob/main/pkg/chart/loader/load.go#L84 which is called from the chart-releaser?

Research direction
Start by tracing how chart-releaser builds the GitHub release description and compare that flow with Helm's pkg/chart/loader/load.go, which the issue identifies as a possible source. Use the linked Chart.yaml and release as reproduction references; done means newline characters in chart descriptions remain separate lines in generated GitHub releases.
