description	Use when releasing sparse-ir-rs through the manual GitHub Actions workflow that publishes crates first and pushes the release tag only after publish succeeds

Manual Rust Release

Overview

This repository uses a manual GitHub Actions workflow for the Rust release gate. The workflow publishes sparse-ir first, waits until that version is visible on crates.io, publishes sparse-ir-capi, and only then pushes vX.Y.Z.

Preconditions

• The version bump PR is merged.
• Cargo.toml and python/pyproject.toml already contain the intended version.
• python3 check_version.py passes.
• CRATES_IO_TOKEN is configured as a GitHub Actions secret.
• The target version is not already published and the tag does not already exist.

Start The Workflow

gh workflow run manual-release.yml \
  -f release_ref=main \
  -f expected_version=0.8.1 \
  -f confirm_publish=true

Use a different release_ref only when releasing from a specific branch or commit.

Watch The Run

RUN_ID=$(gh run list --workflow manual-release.yml --limit 1 --json databaseId --jq '.[0].databaseId')
gh run watch "$RUN_ID"

Expected Outcome

• The workflow publishes sparse-ir.
• It waits until sparse-ir at that exact version is visible on crates.io.
• It publishes sparse-ir-capi.
• It pushes vX.Y.Z to origin.
• Julia and BinaryBuilder follow-up work happens later.
