Summary

  • document that main and develop must be protected against deletion and force pushes
  • retain the direct main → develop release backport workflow
  • prevent GitHub's automatic head-branch cleanup from deleting either permanent branch

The corresponding minimal branch-protection rules have now been enabled for both branches, including administrator enforcement.

Validation

  • npx --yes markdownlint-cli2 RELEASING.md
  • git diff --check
