+name: create release on new tags
+
+# This workflow is triggered by new version tags (e.g. "1.12.2" without leading "v") on the main
+# branch.
+#
+# Tagging should be automatic after each merged PR release (see the build.yaml workflow).
+# Alternatively, this workflow can be triggered by manually creating a tag on the main branch with
+# the aforementioned format. Note that the tests are *not* run by this workflow, and that you
+# should therefore apply caution before manually tagging the main branch in order to trigger it.
+#
+# This workflow contains a check that the tag matches the version set in
+# ./pkg/chartverifier/version/version_info.json.
+#
+# In order to recreate a GitHub release and rebuild its associated assets, first the tag needs to
+# be manually deleted (e.g `git tag --delete 1.12.2 && git push --delete origin 1.12.2`). The
+# GitHub release that was created for this tag automatically turns into a "Draft" release and will
+# need to be manually cleaned up, though it doesn't constitute a blocker for this workflow to run.
+# Finally, as mentioned above, create a new tag (e.g. `git tag 1.12.2 && git push --tags`) to
+# recreate the release.
+#
+# This workflow builds the tarball, creates the Github release and attaches the tarball to it.
