Opening PR for comments. cc @simeonwillbanks @rsanheim #116 (comment)

I know we could add a gem rake task, but I prefer this route since it's simple enough and doesn't hide any steps.

* on the master branch, run:

```sh
$ git commit -m "bump vX.X.X"

I like @rsanheim's idea of removing $, so the lines are copy/pastable. Thoughts?

Can we just automate the whole thing like we do for Octokit?

Besides CHANGELOG.md, do we want to maintain Releases?

Clear and concise steps. 👍 Thanks @jch!

@simeonwillbanks I tried it for a while, but prefer just updating CHANGELOG.md. Since the gem is pushed up, the download doesn't need to live with Releases.
