Stuck on "Opening GitHub authentication page"

[styfle]

Steps to reproduce

1. Create private repo
2. Make a change in the repo and commit it
3. Install latest release npm install -g release@6.0.0
4. Run release patch

The browser does open and says it can be closed but it does not proceed and no Release is created (however the tag is there).

✔ Bumped version tag to 0.0.4
✔ Created release commit
✔ Tagged commit
✔ Pushed everything to remote
⠇ Opening GitHub authentication page

Workaround

The workaround was to use release patch --show-url and then copy/paste that URL in the browser.

@styfle I just pushed up a PR addressing this issue, if you have a chance could you try out that version and see if the issue is resolved? You can try out the branch with:

git clone https://github.com/ijjk/release
cd release
git checkout fix-stall-on-open  
yarn install
yarn link
