Purpose and Motivation
This is the first step toward automating the release process: a script
that provides a series of yes/no prompts for guiding the release manager
through an entire release from start to finish.
Huge thanks and credit also go to @claremacrae and @jrsurge!
The current idea (correct me if i'm wrong!) is that we merge this
quickly, so @joshpar can use it to create the 3.11.1 release. this would
also serve as a test drive to catch any missing information or steps.
this script is designed to completely describe the release process, so
once this is merged the entire wiki section on the release process will be
replaced with "run
tools/release/make_release.py
