+          #       2. The release version (${{ env.RELEASE_VERSION }}) is extracted and printed in the console correctly
+          #       3. Disable the uploading archive feature in Travis. Otherwise, both Travis and Github Action will
+          #          try to upload the same archive
+          # ./gradlew -Pversion=${{ env.RELEASE_VERSION }} :clients:uploadArchives :core:uploadArchives --no-daemon
