Need some help!

How can I create a git release with only distribution files?

Let's say I have a Sass project and it compiles to a single CSS file. I want to provide just the CSS file in download as release and exclude all other source files. How can I do that and how should this be automated?

Thanks

    Our company used a makefile that you just have to call
    Make dist
    And all the Sass files got compiled, automated tests were executed, etc. And at the end you had a clean installation folder ready to get rolled out

    @sumzor Thanks for the answer but Git releases can only use git branches or commit as a release.

    @waqas-ibrahim maybe there is a way to use Jenkins for that. It can be used for ci so maybe it can refresh a distribution branch, too?

    git checkout --orphan newbranchwithnohistory
    git add sass.css
    git commit -m "Initial commit"
