Build a new release

On xqml project, main branch:

• do any required modifications if any issue is found

On gojq project, main branch:

• fetch all changes from upstream: git fetch upstream
• merge all changes from upstream: git merge upstream/main
• once merge is done, run tests: go test ./...
• review all changes by comparing with upstream: should show only html/xml changes
• finish merge by committing all changes
• use make to build
• perform any tests to check ./gojq is working fine
• push changes once everything is good

On xjq project (here):

To test changes, update go.mod with new gojq version

• use make to build ./xjq
• check version with ./xjq --version
• perform any other tests

To release

• ./update.sh xqml
• ./update.sh gojq [NEW_TAG] - use NEW_TAG only when gojq version has changed
• ./update.sg xjq
