Hi, The finish up message is set up to always display information about `master` branch even while user is using different one. It may lead to unpushed changes etc. IMO user should be notified with proper command here. I noticed that this information is printed here: https://github.com/conventional-changelog/standard-version/blob/master/lib/lifecycles/tag.js so simple git branch discovery wil be enough here. I will try to fix that if this issue is valid for you. Also for the `--tag prerelease` is always displayed, but `npm publish` only when package is not private.
