					**Example for feeding a file from repo to the `body` tag:**
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					This example covers following points:
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					* Reading a file present on the repo. For example, `release.md` which is placed in root directory of the repo.
 | 
				
			||||||
 | 
					* Modify & push the `release.md` file before triggering this action (create tag for this example) to dynamically change the body of the release.
