+3. Update the `CHANGELOG.md` with any customer-affecting changes since the last release and add this to the git index
+4. Run `npm version <VERSION_NUMBER> --no-git-tag-version` with the new version and add the changes to the git index
+5. Create a PR for the release branch

+8. Run `npm publish .` (should require OTP) - publishes to npm
+9. Visit https://github.com/ably-forks/text-decoder/tags and create a GitHub release based on the new tag (for release notes, you can copy the notes you added to the CHANGELOG)
