To release a new version of DCS Liberation:
1. Make sure the version number and changelog are up to date in the release branch. If the changelog needs to be updated, fix it in develop first and cherry-pick the updates to the release branch so they stay in sync.
2. Tag the release branch when the build is complete. Format for release tags is `$MAJOR.$MINOR.$PATCH`. **Do not create a release.** A release will be created automatically by the GitHub action from the tag.
3. Smoke test the tagged build
4. Update the bug templates in .github to allow reporting bugs against the new release. Old versions should be removed.
5. In [Releases](https://github.com/dcs-liberation/dcs_liberation/releases), promote the tagged build to a release. The description should be pre-filled with the changelog.
6. Announce the release in #:loudspeaker:releases in Discord.
