## What it is
ghr is a Go CLI tool that creates GitHub Releases and uploads build artifacts to them in parallel. It reads repository info from .git/config and supports GitHub Enterprise via an API endpoint environment variable.

## Use cases
- upload cross-compiled binaries to a github release
- create a github release from ci pipeline
- attach multiple artifacts to a release in parallel
- publish release assets for a git tag
- automate release uploads in github actions
- upload release assets to github enterprise

## When to choose
- you need to automate GitHub Release creation and artifact uploads from scripts or CI
- you want fast parallel uploads of many release assets
- you use GitHub Enterprise and need a configurable API endpoint

## When to avoid
- you need releases on platforms other than GitHub
- you want a GUI or web-based release management tool
- you need signed or checksum-verified uploads beyond what GitHub's API provides

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: active
- function: cli, developer-tools, deployment, ci-cd
- domain: developer-tools, version-control
- platform: cli, cross-platform, go
- tags: github-release, artifact-upload, release-automation, github-enterprise, command-line, automation
