Versioning

[maximiliankolb]

Hi

I have two suggestions to fine tune versioning the fonts:

• Drop "X.Y.z" in fonts/ and instead use git for version control
• Release fonts based on tags that are "X.Y.Z", not "Release"

Ideally, there's a GitHub Action that acts on tags and creates an archive associated with the release.

Examples: https://github.com/githubnext/monaspace/tags or https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/tags

https://github.com/ncipollo/release-action - GitHub Releases action that allows you to upload artifacts as well

Since the font files are already in the repository, your steps should be:

• Checkout the repository.
• Zip or Tar the directory with the fonts in it. That should be possible with just Unix commands if you're using ubuntu-latest, but there's also probably an action for that.
• Point the release action to the newly created archive.
