Releasing is handled by Shopify’s internal Shipit server.
After merging a change, a separate PR should be opened to update History.md and bump the version (following Semantic Versioning).
When merged, the new release will be automatically tagged and deployed to rubygems.org.
Note that the automatic process does not create a new release on GitHub.
