This pull request adds a new workflow for updating major release tags. These changes are inspired by the way folks are doing things over at
actions/checkout.This pull request also adds a rough maintainer guide document that helps to describe the release process
How and why?
In the
actions/checkoutrepo, you can point to a version such asactions/checkout@v4and it will actually use the latestv4tag. For example, ifv4.1.1exists (and it does), by selecting the major release tag ofv4it will be used because thev4release tag gets updated to point to the latestv4.x.xrelease.This pull request adds a new workflow that can triggered manually by the maintainers of this project to ensure that the latest release tag is up-to-date with the "major release tag".
