…ight check lint:pub shells out to `pub publish -n`, which rejects a dirty tree, so it could never pass where step 4 ran it — before the release commit. Split it into step 5, after the commit and before the push. Add a pre-flight check for a git/path `stream_core_flutter` dependency. Both are rejected by pub.dev, and because `release_publish.yml` publishes in dependency order, the failure lands mid-run and half-publishes the version.

Dart pub publish invalid_dependency git path dependency ignore comment pub.dev validation
💡 Result:
The invalid_dependency error occurs because pub.dev strictly requires all dependencies of a publishable package to be hosted on the official pub.dev package repository [1][2]. Dependencies sourced from git or a local file path are not permitted for packages intended to be published to pub.dev [3][2]. There is no supported way to ignore or suppress this validation check for packages being published to pub.dev [2][4]. The Dart toolchain's validation logic is designed to ensure that packages remain installable and accessible for all users [5][1]. If you encounter this error, you have two primary options based on your intent: 1. If you must use a git or path dependency: You cannot publish that specific package to pub.dev [1][2]. You can mark the package as non-publishable by adding publish_to: none to your pubspec.yaml file [1][2][4]. This stops the tool from attempting validation for publication [1][4]. 2. If the package must be published to pub.dev: You must replace the git or path dependency with a version constraint pointing to a package hosted on pub.dev [2]. Regarding your question about using an "ignore comment": There is no "ignore" comment for the invalid_dependency diagnostic in pubspec.yaml files [2][4]. While the dart pub publish command has a --skip-validation flag, it is intended for advanced use cases (such as publishing dependent packages within a single workspace where the first hasn't propagated to the index yet) and is not a mechanism to bypass the prohibition of git/path dependencies on pub.dev [6]. Using --skip-validation to attempt to upload a package with disallowed dependencies will result in a server-side rejection [6][1]. If you are developing a package that depends on local sibling packages, consider using Dart Workspaces, which are designed to manage multi-package repositories effectively without requiring manual path dependency management for public distribution [7].

Match the dependency key and source type, not a URL spelling.
The check can miss stream_core_flutter when a Git URL omits .git or when a path value does not contain stream_core_flutter. Inspect the dependency mapping in each publishable manifest and reject any mapping with a git or path source. Keep melos run lint:pub as the final gate.

Do not stage the entire working tree.
Line 56 ignores untracked files with git status --short -uno, but Line 157 stages them with git add -A. A local secret or unrelated artifact can enter the release commit and be pushed at Line 175.
Use a full clean-status check and stage only tracked release outputs or an explicit file allowlist.
Proposed safer staging
- - `git status --short -uno` clean after `git checkout <base>` + `git pull --ff-only`.

Two fixes to the
release-prskill, both found while cutting v10.3.0 (#2899).1.
lint:pubran before the commit, so it could never passStep 4 ran
melos run analyzeandmelos run lint:pubtogether, then step 5 committed. Butlint:pubshells out toflutter pub publish -n, which rejects a dirty tree:Every release run hits this. Split into: step 4 analyze + commit, step 5
lint:pub+ push — so the publish gate runs against the tree that will actually be published, and still before anything is pushed.2. No pre-flight check for a git/path
stream_core_flutterdeppackages/stream_chat_flutter/pubspec.yamlcarries a git pin whenever we're iterating onstream_core_flutteralongside this SDK (added by #2748 this cycle). pub.dev rejects git and path deps, so the release cannot publish.It surfaced only at step 4, after a full
melos bs. Worse, it would not have failed cleanly on merge:release_publish.ymlpublishes with--order-dependents, sostream_chat,stream_chat_persistenceandstream_chat_flutter_corewould have gone live at the new version beforestream_chat_flutterfailed — a half-published release, which is not reversible on pub.dev.Now a one-second
grepin pre-flight, with instructions to stop rather than pick astream_core_flutterversion unilaterally.Summary by CodeRabbit
