Creating a VSG Release

Overview

Releases use make tag to bump the Helm chart appVersion and create a git tag in one step. The GitHub Actions release workflow then builds binaries, Docker image, and Homebrew formula automatically.

Steps

Ensure all changes are committed and pushed to main
Check the current version from git tags: git tag --list 'v*' --sort=-v:refname | head -1
- Do NOT trust CLAUDE.md or any docs for the current version — git tags are the source of truth
Run: make tag TAG=x.y.z
- Updates helm/vault-secrets-generator/Chart.yaml appVersion
- Commits with chore: bump helm chart appVersion to x.y.z
- Creates git tag vx.y.z
Push: git push origin main vx.y.z
Verify the Release workflow completes successfully
