2.33.4

• a4006da: Commit release version bumps directly to main again instead of opening and auto-merging a release/* pull request; a push rejected by a repository rule now fails the release with an actionable error. Help text, option descriptions, Telegram replies and text posted to GitHub describe current behaviour only, without change narration or issue provenance tags, and the contributing guide states that the code is not a changelog.
