+- Made the release workflow idempotent.
+  `#7868 <https://pulp.plan.io/issues/7868>`_
+- Automated the pre-release steps for the release workflow
+
+  The release workflow for plugins now expects a release branch to exist with the correct 
+  .dev version and correct pulpcore requirements. The release workflow needs to be run
+  against the release branch being released. It takes one parameter: release tag (a.k.a
+  version string).
