## What Happens on Release

When you push a tag matching `v*`:

1. **Build job** - Cross-compiles on ubuntu-latest for:
   - `aarch64-macos`
   - `x86_64-linux`
   - `x86_64-windows`
2. **Release job** - Creates GitHub release with:
   - Tarballs (`.tar.gz`) for Unix platforms
   - Zip (`.zip`) for Windows
   - `checksums.txt` with SHA256 hashes
   - Release notes from `docs/releases/vX.Y.Z.md`

## Prerelease Tags

Tags containing `-` (e.g., `v0.1.0-beta`, `v0.2.0-rc1`) are automatically marked as prereleases on GitHub.

## Installing via mise

Users can install ziglint directly from GitHub releases:

```bash
mise use github:rockorager/ziglint
