Summary
When the release workflow is run by
workflow_dispatchwith a tag that doesn't exist yet, it now creates that tag. It does this by replacing--verify-tagwith--target "$GITHUB_SHA"in thegh release createcall, soghtags the dispatched commit. This means a release can be cut from the Actions tab without pushing a tag first. Tag-push runs work as before: the tag already points atGITHUB_SHA.I'll use this to cut v1.1.0, because this session isn't allowed to push tags.
