Pull request overview

This PR updates the release pipeline so GoReleaser creates GitHub releases as drafts, and the workflow explicitly publishes the release only after the rest of the release workflow finishes (e.g., registry/notification steps). This supports compatibility with GitHub immutable releases by deferring the “publish” action until the end.

Changes:

  • Configure GoReleaser to create draft GitHub releases (draft: true).
  • Add a workflow step to publish the draft release via gh release edit ... --draft=false after downstream release steps complete.
  • Quote the git clone URL used for syncing the manifest to the registry.
