Unable to use release command on GITLAB_HOSTNAME with leading prefix (www.)
### Checklist - [x] I'm using the latest version of the extension (Run `glab --version`) - Extension version: _1.57.0, same behaviour on 1.53.0_ - [x] Operating system and version: _macOS 15.5, same behaviour on Ubuntu 22.04_ - [x] Gitlab.com or self-managed instance? _self-managed instance_ - [x] GitLab version (if self-managed) _18.0.1_ - [x] I have performed `glab auth status` to check for authentication issues - [x] Run the command in debug mode (like `DEBUG=true glab mr list`) and attach any useful output: _No useful output_ ### Summary In an environment with a Gitlab HTTP URL in format `www.domain.com/gitlab` the glab release command isn't working because it strips the `www.` prefix in the hostname. This leads to an unauthenticated call to the API, as the stripped hostname host can't be found in the glab configuration file. ### Environment - OS: Darwin 24.5.0 arm64 - SHELL: /opt/homebrew/bin/fish - TERM: xterm-256color - GLAB: glab 1.57.0 (d14f47ce) Other: The behaviour was reproduced locally on a MacOS client. The steps to reproduce are the ones that are executed in CI Pipelines in GitLab 18.0.1 when using the [release keyword](https://docs.gitlab.com/ci/yaml/#release). For us the release functionality in pipelines is broken because of this bug! ### Steps to reproduce ``` ❯ export GITLAB_HOST=https://www.domain.com/gitlab ❯ glab auth login --token glpat-*** --hostname www.domain.com/gitlab --api-protocol https ❯ glab -R path/to/repo release create "0.1.20250526175731-94e98696" --experimental-notes-text-or-file "Debug" --ref "94e98696b15c2f2d1d5a2e222b087bd0b8ec765e" --no-update --no-close-milestone ❯ cat ~/.config/glab-cli/config.yml ... # Configuration specific for GitLab instances. www.nexmart.com/gitlab: token: glpat-*** api_protocol: https ``` ### What is the current _bug_ behavior? ``` glab -R path/to/repo release create "0.1.20250526175731-94e98696" --experimental-notes-text-or-file "Debug" --ref "94e98696076a3da94ca08ed5be89c526d4e5b977" --no-update --no-close-milestone • Creating or updating release repo=path/to/repo tag=0.1.20250526175731-94e98696 x release failed after 0.13 seconds. error=404 Not Found ``` ### What is the expected _correct_ behavior? The hostname set in GITLAB_HOSTNAME is parsed correctly. The release is created. ### Relevant logs and/or screenshots In Webserver logs it can be seen that the hostname in the api call is "domain.com" not "www.domain.com". Manually adding an authentication for domain.com fixes the problem as a workaround and confirms the bug behaviour. ``` ❯ export GITLAB_HOST=https://www.domain.com/gitlab ❯ glab auth login --token glpat-*** --hostname domain.com/gitlab --api-protocol https ❯ glab -R dev/apps/playground/application-playground-service release create "0.1.20250526175731-94e98696" --experimental-notes-text-or-file "Debug" --ref "94e98696b15c2f2d1d5a2e222b087bd0b8ec765e" --no-update --no-close-milestone • Creating or updating release repo=path/to/repo tag=0.1.20250526175731-94e98696 ✓ Release created: url=https://www.domain.com/path/to/repo/-/releases/0.1.20250526175731-94e98696 ✓ Skipping closing milestones ✓ Release succeeded after 0.36 seconds. ``` ### Possible fixes
