Release with -b attribute not working with html messages

[ernitishkumar]

When using -b flag for passing body of release.

If a complete html body is passed as release body consisting of html attributes we are getting syntax error on circleci

But the release is posted to github without release body.

I need the same with markdown body

Is it possible this is due to double quoting issues? I just noticed a potential bug in a CI pipeline we have where we do -b "$body", but any double-quotes in $body (which are common in HTML) would cause a syntax error.

I found this issue while searching for a way to provide the body without running into quoting issues, such as reading the body from a file or by taking it from stdin.
