Orbisius Release Manager allows WordPress developers/designers to easily release their plugins (soon and themes) at WordPress.org

= What this tool does = The tool simplifies the job of the WordPress developer by allowing him/her to release a version using a single click. The tools will tell you if a plugin needs to be tested with the latest WordPress version (by checking the readme file) Also it warns you if there are any uncommitted changes, the stable tag doesn't match the current version etc. It also checks if you have a change log for a given version and much more. When all conditions are met the Push Release button will appear. Shows the release dir in a nice textbox for easy copy/paste.

Supports files or directories to be ignored during the packaging. It also reads the .gitignore file if exists and parses its contents too. one per line. File .release_manager_ignore must be in the root folder of the plugin.

Note: The tool is intended to be used on the local development machine that's not accessible from the internet.
