Release steps

Release steps

1. Merge approved PR(s) into master and update your local master.
2. Use Github compare view to determine appropriate semver bump level.
   • Use major for any change that could break consumers
   • Use minor for non-breaking enhancements
   • Use patch for non-breaking bugfixes
3. Branch off master to a clean branch for the bump. Run npm version [major|minor|patch] to create an isolated tagged commit for the bump. If tests run on the preversion hook then those will have to pass first.
4. Push your commit and its tag: git push && git push --tags
5. Go to the releases page and edit the release to summarize notable changes
6. PR your bump into master and link to the release from the PR description. Double check that the release exists by clicking the link. Then merge the PR into master.
