Gitversion: tag-prefix in config does not work (latest stable)

[makuepfer]

My GitVersion.yaml:

assembly-versioning-scheme: MajorMinorPatchTag
mode: ContinuousDelivery
tag-prefix: release/
branches: {}
ignore:
  sha: []
merge-message-formats: {}

My GitVersion installed via Choco:
5.1.3+Branch.master.Sha.bef8ebc0b62b3ddd0cdafe09b66d68bbfcaf90d5

git tag:
release/2.4.2

gitversion always returns 0.1.0:

{
  "Major":0,
  "Minor":1,
  "Patch":0,
...
}

gitversion /overrideconfig tag-prefix=release/ returns the correct version:

{
  "Major":2,
  "Minor":4,
  "Patch":2,
...
}

When I remove the prefix in the tag, the command gitversion returns the correct Version 2.4.2. But when having a tag-prefix in the config, it won't work.

Same problem on TFS / AzureDevops on premise when using the extension on version 5.0.1 (Latest)

@makuepfer what do you get if you run:

gitversion /showconfig

Thanks @gep13 for your quick reply.

Here's my result of gitversion /showconfig

It says tag-prefix: '[vV]' which indicates that the config isn't picked up somehow. Could you try the following config to see if it helps?

tag-prefix: 'release/'

Sorry guys for taking your time. It is my bad. My config is called GitVersion.yaml instead of your default GitVersion.yml.
When renaming the file, it all works as expected.
