It's been a while since I looked at grunt-release, but the projects I
manage either have too large of a release process or too small of a release
process to make it worthwhile for me. A few months ago, I put together
notes on how I think a generic release module should work:

For most of my projects, I essentially do the same thing that Jake
suggested. However, jQuery UI has a very large release process, which is
managed via node, that touches on everything you've mentioned:
