Manual Release Tagging

If you need to deploy a release that doesn't include a fix, feat, or docs commit (for example, a pure chore or meta change), you can manually trigger a release with:

git commit --allow-empty -m "chore: release 0.3.1 (manual)" -m "Release-As: 0.3.1"

Replace 0.3.1 with the desired version number.
