+  method.
+* MINOR: changes that add new features, enhance existing features, or deprecate
+  features in a backward-compatible way, such as adding a new method or improving
+  performance without breaking existing functionality.

+  the API or alter existing functionality, such as fixing user-facing typos or
+  updating user documentation.
+
+This command must be run from the project root directory with a clean worktree on the
+default branch.
