A simple release workflow is available in (.github/workflows/release.yml) but it can't make the changes to the repository due to the branch protection system. The idea is to implement this with the GH API instead of bare git commands.
The workflow does the "git" part of the release checklist (cf (CONTRIBUTING.md)):
Tag the merge commit with the release version (see Versioning above)
git switch main
git tag 10.3.0.1 # Just an example
Make dev point to the merge commit just created in main
This is necessary to include the merge commit into master to calculate intermediary versions
with Versioneer.
Steps:
git switch dev
git reset --hard main
git push dev (you need to remove the protections of dev for this step)
