+How to Perform a Release
+========================
+
+1. The first step is to create a tag, push it, and let GitHub Actions do the release.
+
+    ```sh
+    # For v1.x.y
+    ver=1.2.0 # change this to new version
+    git checkout series/1.x
+    git checkout -b topic/v$ver
+    echo "ThisBuild / version := \"$ver\" // Workaround for #504" > version.sbt
+    git add version.sbt
+    git commit -m "Setting version to v$ver"
+    git tag -s v$ver
+    git push --tags
+
+    # For v2.x onwards
+    ver=2.0.0 # change this to new version
+    git checkout master
+    git tag -s v$ver
+    git push --tags
+    ```
+
+
+2. Wait for the release to complete.
