so the README always shows the current latest release with zero
maintenance.

 This plugin is distributed as the standalone Go binary `semrel-plugin-hook-gitplugin`. Semrel executes the binary as a subprocess, provides plugin configuration through `SEMREL_PLUGIN_*` environment variables, provides release context through `SEMREL_*` environment variables, reads standard output, and treats exit code `0` as success and any non-zero exit code as failure. Install the binary in `~/.semrel/plugins/` or anywhere on your `$PATH`.
