Summary
Simplifies the release workflow by removing release branch support and keeping only
workflow_dispatchtrigger.Problem
The previous workflow supported two release methods:
workflow_dispatch- manual trigger with version inputpushtorelease/*branch - auto-triggerThe release branch approach had a critical flaw: after creating the release, the workflow tried to merge the release branch back to
main, which failed due to branch protection rules. GitHub Actions withGITHUB_TOKENcannot bypass protected branch rules.Solution
Remove the release branch trigger entirely. Use only
workflow_dispatch:# New release process: gh workflow run release.yml -f version=0.9.4Changes
