Usage: charm release [options] <charm or bundle id> [--channel <channel>]

Summary:
release a charm or bundle

Options:
--auth  (= )
    user:passwd to use for basic HTTP authentication
-c, --channel  (= stable)
    the channel the charm or bundle is assigned to (stable|candidate|beta|edge)
-r, --resource  (= )
    resource to be published with the charm

Details:
The release command publishes a charm or bundle to the charm store.
Releasing is the action of assigning one channel to a specific charm
or bundle revision (revision need to be specified), so that it can be shared
with other users and also referenced without specifying the revision.
Four channels are supported: "stable", "candidate", "beta" and "edge";
the "stable" channel is used by default.

    charm release ~bob/trusty/wordpress

To select another channel, use the --channel option, for instance:

    charm release ~bob/trusty/wordpress --channel beta
    charm release wily/django-42 -c edge --resource website-3 --resource data-2

If your charm uses resources, you must specify what revision of each resource
will be published along with the charm, using the --resource flag (one per
resource). Note that resource info is embedded in bundles, so you cannot use
this flag with bundles.

    charm release wily/django-42 --resource website-3 --resource data-2
