-## 🏷️ How to Tag & Publish (Beta) Releases
-
-Releases can be published automatically to Gitea via Git tags:
-
-```bash
-# 1. Create a version tag (stable or beta)
-git tag -a v0.1.0-beta.1 -m "Release v0.1.0-beta.1"
-
-# Or a stable release:
-git tag -a v0.1.0 -m "Release v0.1.0"
-
-# 2. Push the tag to Gitea
-git push origin v0.1.0-beta.1
-```
-
-Pushing any `v*` tag triggers the automated release workflow (`.gitea/workflows/release.yaml`), which:
-1. Automatically detects pre-releases (tags containing `beta`, `alpha`, `rc`, `pre`, `preview`, or `dev`) and marks them as **Pre-release** on Gitea.
-2. Builds the APK and packages it.
-3. Publishes a new Gitea Release with `a3270.apk` attached automatically.
