Scope
We've had a few instances recently of manually typing out the wrong tag number, and this is the sort of thing that computers can do quite well! So I stole a bit of my work from my days on Skate, and this is the result!
How to test
Run
mix deploy.prodand see it open a browser window with the right tag selected.You can also fiddle with the
today_formatted()function if you want to pretend to be running the script on a different day, in order to test out thesame_day?logic.(Don't worry - the mix task won't actually execute a deploy - it just opens the New Release page with the right tag set - you'll still have to publish the release and approve the Github Action before anything goes to prod!)
