Creating a pre-release before “un-pre-releasing” it is not proper. The pre-release flag is mean to convey eg. alpha, beta.

The ideal flow IMO is we create a draft release and then github actions takes over.

However in their infinite wisdom GitHub decided that creating draft releases cannot trigger workflows 😒

So instead we convert cd.yml to a worfklow dispatch and remove the pre-release step.


Having written this I actually disagree with myself, pre-release will do. The only advantage of what I wrote here is that we correctly calculate the previous tag so the generated release notes are correct rather than it always comparing with the v0 tag.
