Library Deployment

Releases are automatically created when you create a new [Git tag](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Tagging)!

If you want to manually make releases, please install GoReleaser:

[goreleaser](https://github.com/goreleaser/goreleaser) for easy binary or library deployment to GitHub and can be installed:
- **using make:** `make install-releaser`
- **using brew:** `brew install goreleaser`

The [.goreleaser.yml](.goreleaser.yml) file is used to configure [goreleaser](https://github.com/goreleaser/goreleaser).


### Automatic Releases on Tag Creation (recommended)
Automatic releases via [GitHub Actions](.github/workflows/release.yml) from creating a new tag:
```shell
make tag version=1.2.3
```


### Manual Releases (optional)
Use `make release-snap` to create a snapshot version of the release, and finally `make release` to ship to production (manually).
