Description

The @metamask/create-release-branch package (v4.1.1) currently doesn't support Brave as a default browser when attempting to open the release UI, causing the release process to fail. We need to add support for Brave browser to ensure the release workflow works correctly for all team members.

Technical Details

  • Current error occurs in the open package dependency when trying to launch the UI server
  • Error message: Error: Brave is not supported as a default browser
  • The issue appears when running yarn create-release-branch --interactive
  • The UI server successfully starts on port 3000 but fails when attempting to open the browser

Acceptance Criteria

  • create-release-branch should successfully recognize Brave as a supported browser
  • The release UI should open in Brave browser when it's set as the default
  • If Brave is not supported, it should gracefully fallback to another supported browser
  • Update documentation to reflect browser support status

References

  • Current @metamask/create-release-branch version: 4.1.1 (from package.json)
  • Error log:
Error: Brave is not supported as a default browser
