docs(react-native): Clarify options merging and release alignment for native auto-init#17540
Conversation
Rewrite the Options Merging alert to explain that pre-JS crashes use only sentry.options.json values, not JS overrides. Add a Setting Release and Distribution section with guidance on keeping native and JS release values aligned via SENTRY_RELEASE/SENTRY_DIST env vars. Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

DESCRIBE YOUR PR
Clarifies how
sentry.options.jsonandSentry.init()options interact when using native auto-initialization.Users enabling
useNativeInitwith a customreleaseinSentry.init()see two separate releases in Sentry — one from native init (auto-detected) and one from JS init (custom). The previous docs implied JS always overrides, which isn't true for crashes captured before JS loads.This is related to the investigation in getsentry/sentry-react-native#6069
