fix(ci): replace \d with [0-9] in semver validation grep#561
Merged
Conversation
\d is a PCRE extension and not valid in POSIX ERE (grep -E). On the GitHub Actions Ubuntu runner this caused valid versions like '1.3.0' to always fail the semver validation check. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Why?
The
prepare-releaseworkflow was rejecting valid semver inputs like1.3.0because the grep pattern used\dto match digits.\dis a PCRE extension and is not recognised by POSIX ERE (grep -E), the mode used on the GitHub Actions Ubuntu runner.How?
Replace
\dwith[0-9]in the semver validation regex, making it valid POSIX ERE and portable across all GNU/Linux environments.
