## Creating a Release (Maintainers)
Releases are built and published automatically by the [Release](.github/workflows/release.yml) GitHub workflow
whenever a version tag is pushed to the repository.
1. Update `projectVersion` in `gradle.properties` to the new version, following the naming convention described in
that file (e.g. `0.6.2-alpha-1`, `0.6.2-beta-1` or `0.6.2`).
2. Commit and push the change to `master`.
3. Create and push a tag that matches the version with a leading `v`:
```
git tag v0.6.2-beta-1
git push origin v0.6.2-beta-1
```
The workflow then:
* Verifies that the tag matches `projectVersion` in `gradle.properties` and fails if it does not.
* Builds and tests the code, then creates the release zips for Linux, Mac and Windows (x86-64 and aarch64).
* Creates a GitHub release titled `Version <version>` with auto-generated release notes (a "What's Changed" list of
the PRs merged since the previous version tag), and attaches the six zip
files plus a `SHA256SUMS` checksum file.
* Marks tags containing a dash (alpha and beta versions) as pre-releases. Tags without a dash become full releases.
If the workflow fails part way through, fix the problem and re-run it from the Actions tab. It resumes from the
draft release left behind. It won't modify a release that has already been published. To rebuild a published
release, delete the release and the tag on GitHub, then push the tag again.
