Description

Hello,

I am wondering why the developers decided to run the main step of pushing release commit in prepare, shouldn't this action only be run after the whole publish succeeded?

Research direction

Start by tracing the plugin's prepare and publish lifecycle handling in the repository, then inspect any release configuration or history that explains when the release commit is pushed. Confirm the intended ordering with the semantic-release lifecycle documentation. Done means the rationale and expected behavior are documented, or the issue is narrowed to a concrete change if the ordering is incorrect.
