+## Release
+
+The release workflow is triggered each time a tag with `v` prefix is pushed.
+
+This repo uses [Github Tag Bump](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/github-tag-bump) for auto tagging on master branch. It automatically triggers the release workflow.
+
+- Add `#minor` to your commit message to bump minor version.
+- Add `#major` to your commit message to bump major version. DANGER! Use it with caution and make sure you understand the consequences. More info: [Go Wiki](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/Modules#releasing-modules-v2-or-higher), [Go Blog][https://blog.golang.org/v2-go-modules].
