+# This workflow cuts a release. The workflow then downloads
+# the source archives from different GitHub URLs against the
+# source code sigstore-go released.
+# A source archive is a compressed archive that GitHub creates
+# by way of "git archive" and makes available for anyone to
+# download.
+# The workflow first checks out the release tag and then
+# verifies these source archives against the checked out
+# source. As such, the checked out source is our source
+# of truth, and to pass verification, the downloaded source
+# archives must match our source of truth.
+#
+# When this workflow completes, sigstore-go will issue a release,
+# and consumers can get donwload the source code by and any
+# of the following methods:
+# 1. curl -L \
+#     -H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
+#     -H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR-TOKEN>" \
+#     -H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2022-11-28" \
+#     https://api.github.com/repos/sigstore/sigstore-go/zipball/REF (or "tarball")
+# 2. Manually downloading the source archive from a release page.
+# 3. wget https://github.com/sigstore/sigstore-go/archive/tags/REF.zip (or .tar.gz)
+#
+# Consumers can then verify the source archive by way of:
+# gh attestation verify SOURCE_ARCHIVE.zip/tar.gz --repo=sigstore/sigstore-go
