(DO use the "preview" tab to proofread the text.)
Create the binaries and attach them to the release:
go run build/build.go
## Step 6. Publish the release
NOTE: This command creates binaries with the version number and git hash embedded. It also builds the releases for all supported platforms (i.e. creates a .exe for Windows even if you are running on Linux. Isn't Go amazing?)
WARNING: if there are files that haven't been checked in, the version string will have "dirty" appended.
This is what it looks like when you did it right:
```
$ ./dnscontrol-Darwin version
dnscontrol 3.0.0 ("a7c62e5d317e7e3da76dffd8e24d6a9d304d8159") built 22 Mar 20 15:16 EDT
```
This is what it looks like when there was a file that wasn't checked in:
```
$ ./dnscontrol-Darwin version
dnscontrol 3.0.0 ("ee5208bd5f19b9e5dd0bdba8d0e13403c43a469a[dirty]") built 22 Mar 20 15:16 EDT

## Step 6. Attach the binaries and release.
a. Drag and drop binaries into the web form.
There is a box labeled "Attach binaries by dropping them here or
selecting them". Drag dnscontrol-Darwin, dnscontrol-Linux, and
dnscontrol.exe onto that box (one at a time or all at once). This
will upload the binaries.
b. Submit the release.
a. Publish the release.
Make sure the "This is a pre-release" checkbox is UNchecked. Then click "Publish Release".
b. Wait for workflow to complete
There's a GitHub Actions [workflow](https://github.com/StackExchange/dnscontrol/actions?query=workflow%3Arelease) which automatically builds and attaches
all 3 binaries to the release. Refresh the page after a few minutes and you'll
see dnscontrol-Darwin, dnscontrol-Linux, and dnscontrol.exe attached as assets.
## Step 7. Announce it via email
