# `--verify-tag` GitHub Release step can run safely (see that workflow's own comments). Gated on
# steps.tag.outputs.created (not just due) so a no-op tag step -- for any reason -- never triggers a
# rebuild/republish of an existing GHCR image tag with different content.
#
# Dispatch against the TAG, not `main`: `main` is a floating ref, and this repo merges fast enough
# that a commit can land in the gap between the "Tag the new beta" step above pushing $TAG and this
# step's dispatch actually being processed by GitHub. `--ref main` would then resolve `github.sha`
# inside release-selfhost.yml to that NEWER commit, while $TAG (pushed moments ago, immutable) still
# points at the older one it was actually cut for -- tripping that workflow's own
# TAG_SHA-must-equal-RELEASE_SHA fail-safe and aborting the release. Dispatching against $TAG instead
# makes `github.sha` resolve to exactly the commit the tag points to, by construction, so the two can
# never disagree regardless of how many commits land on main afterward.
