No, you cannot trigger the GitHub release workflow if local commits are not up to date. Pre-release checks validate that local commits are synchronized before creating a version tag and initiating the release workflow.

The best way to ensure reproducible releases is to enforce pre-release checks, validate semantic versioning, and prevent duplicate tags. This skill automates these steps on the main branch to push Git tags to origin and trigger the workflow.
