+# Releasing protovalidate
+
+The protovalidate repository contains two Go modules, and a Bazel module with
+Bzlmod and WORKSPACE support, which is pushed to the Bazel Central Repository.
+Proper release process is necessary to ensure that a protovalidate release is
+usable in all of these forms.
+
+Most of the protovalidate release process is automated, but in the event that
+automation can not be utilized, the manual steps are also included in the
+collapsed sections below.
+
+1.  **Run the [create release tag] workflow.**
+
+    Go to the [create release tag] workflow page and select <q>Run workflow</q>,
+    with the desired version tag (e.g. `v1.2.3`).
+
+    <details>
+
+    <summary>What this workflow does</summary>
+
+    This will create two release tags for the latest `main` revision:
+
+    - `v1.2.3`: For Bazel, BCR, Go main module, etc.
+    - `tools/v1.2.3`: For the Go tools module
+
+    These tags can also be created manually. Pushing the `v1.2.3` tag should
+    trigger the remaining release automation. Do not forget to create both tags
+    in the event of manually cutting a release.
+
+    Note that this workflow creates tags directly on GitHub instead of pushing
+    tags up, so it will not indirectly trigger the draft release automation in
+    that way. Instead, a workflow call is used. So, the creat release draft
+    workflow will appear nested under the create release tag workflow as a step.
+
+    </details>
+
+1.  **Find the draft release.**
+
+    Upon either pushing a release tag or running the previous workflow, a
+    release draft should be created. Check for it in the [releases page].
+
+    If for some reason this doesn't happen, it is possible to directly trigger
+    the workflow by going to the [create release draft] action and selecting
+    <q>Run workflow</q>.
+
+    <details>
+
+    <summary>Manually creating a release draft</summary>
+
+    To manually create a release draft, run `.github/workflows/release_prep.sh`
+    with the version tag (e.g. `vX.Y.Z`) as an argument, while checked out to
+    the release tag/commit:
+
+    ```
+    .github/workflows/release_prep.sh v1.2.3
+    ```
+
+    This will create two files:
+
+    - `release_notes.md`: This should be prepended to the GitHub-generated
+      release notes. It contains instructions on how to include the repo with
+      Bazel.
+    - `protovalidate-1.2.3.tar.gz`: This should be attached to the release. It
+      includes a stable tarball of the release commit for Bazel.
+
+    </details>
+
+1.  **Publish the release.**
+
+    Once the release draft is created, edit it as needed, prepending any
+    important notes (e.g. breaking changes), and finally, publish it.
+
+1.  **Check [Bazel Central Registry repository] for a pull request.**
+
+    Shortly after publishing the release, the [Publish to BCR] app should've
+    created a new pull request. There may be failures in CI that need to be
+    addressed.
