To make the release a bit smoother next time, styled like https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep/blob/master/RELEASE-CHECKLIST.md. I also added some notes on curating the changelog but I'll be happy to cover that for 22.07 as well 🙂. I'll probably push a 22.07-changelog branch some time next week.

docs/releases.md Outdated
* `git tag -s -m "<tag>" -a <tag> && git push`
* Make sure to switch to master and pull first
* Edit the `VERSION` file and add back the `-dev` and change the date to the next planned release
* Releases are planned to happen every two months, so `22.05` should be changed to `22.07-dev` in this step

Let's switch back to bumping the version on release. It makes the workflow a bit simpler, we'll just need to be more careful when reading github issues to distinguish dev vs stable. Perhaps we can add that as a field to the debug template?
