+# This task will run whenever you push a git tag that looks like a version
+# like "1.0.0", "v0.1.0-prerelease.1", "my-app/0.1.0", "releases/v1.0.0", etc.
+# Various formats will be parsed into a VERSION and an optional PACKAGE_NAME, where
+# PACKAGE_NAME must be the name of a Cargo package in your workspace, and VERSION
+# must be a Cargo-style SemVer Version (must have at least major.minor.patch).
+#
+# If PACKAGE_NAME is specified, then the announcement will be for that
+# package (erroring out if it doesn't have the given version or isn't cargo-dist-able).
+#
+# If PACKAGE_NAME isn't specified, then the announcement will be for all
+# (cargo-dist-able) packages in the workspace with that version (this mode is
+# intended for workspaces with only one dist-able package, or with all dist-able
+# packages versioned/released in lockstep).
+#
+# If you push multiple tags at once, separate instances of this workflow will
+# spin up, creating an independent announcement for each one. However, GitHub
+# will hard limit this to 3 tags per commit, as it will assume more tags is a
+# mistake.
+#
+# If there's a prerelease-style suffix to the version, then the release(s)
+# will be marked as a prerelease.
