1. Version check (.github/workflows/ami-release-nix.yml:110-120): After grabbing the release version, it checks if it matches the pattern
^[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]{3}(-orioledb)?$ and sets is_release output
2. Generate Changelog (.github/workflows/ami-release-nix.yml:122-125): Only runs if is_release == 'true', uses --unreleased flag to generate changelog for commits
since the last tag
3. Commit and push (.github/workflows/ami-release-nix.yml:127-136): Commits the CHANGELOG.md to the repo and captures the new commit SHA
4. Create release (.github/workflows/ami-release-nix.yml:189-195): Uses the changelog commit SHA as the target for releases, or falls back to the original SHA for
non-release builds
