# Promotes the last release to a milestone. ci cuts a patch on every merge, so
# the released versions run 0.1.4, 0.1.5, 0.1.6; this marks the one you have
# been running as 0.2.0 and publishes it under that name. The release notes
# reach back over every patch being consolidated.
#
# It runs no checks of its own and needs none. The commit it releases is the one
# the last release was cut from, and that commit only carries a tag because a
# whole ci run went green on it.
#
# There is no box to type a version into. The two entries below are the only two
# things a promotion can mean, and a version named by hand is the one way to get
# a release that does not follow from the tag before it.
