The project does not cut RC releases any more - the last one was v5.0.0-RC1 in January 2025, and the one before that was published as a GitHub pre-release, which fires `prereleased` and never triggers this workflow at all. So rather than carry a code path for them, validate the tag shape in the publish job, before anything is deployed: only a plain major.minor.patch tag is accepted. An unexpected tag now fails loudly and is dealt with by hand. Keeps a postcondition in finalize-release that the version about to be tagged is not a SNAPSHOT. That is the exact failure this workflow exists to prevent, so it is worth asserting in the job that promises it, even though the publish guard makes it unreachable.

Restore the checked-out development version instead of deriving a new version.
This command assumes that the existing development version is always the next incremental version after RELEASE_VERSION. For example, a branch on 5.1.0-SNAPSHOT released as 5.0.0 will be changed to 5.0.1-SNAPSHOT.
Read and validate the original POM version before setting the release version. Restore that exact version after creating RELEASE_COMMIT.

Protect the forced tag update with an explicit lease.
The ancestry check uses the tag state fetched during checkout. A concurrent actor can update the remote tag after that check. The forced refspec then overwrites the newer target without validating its ancestry.
Capture the raw tag ref OID during the check. Use it with --force-with-lease. Use an empty expected OID when the tag did not exist. For annotated tags, do not use the peeled commit OID as the lease value.
Based on learnings, a local tag check does not reliably protect a later forced update from concurrent tag changes.

Previously, a concurrency group could have one run in progress and one pending run. If another run entered the group, the pending run was canceled and replaced. Now, you can configure concurrency groups to queue multiple pending runs and process them sequentially, with support for up to 100 queued jobs or workflow runs per concurrency group. This makes it easier to manage deployments and other workflows that need to run in order against a shared environment or resource. Increased queuing can be enabled by adding `queue: max` to the concurrency block in YAML when `cancel-in-progress` is `false` or not set. For more information, see the GitHub Actions documentation on controlling the concurrency of workflows and jobs.Citations:
Queue pending release runs.
With cancel-in-progress: false, GitHub Actions still keeps only one pending run by default. A newer release can replace an older pending run before release-sdk starts. Add queue: max to retain up to 100 pending release runs.

Follow-up to #3631. Remove the concurrency group. It was added to serialize releases, but the default queue keeps only one pending run: with a release running and a second pending, a third cancels the second, which would then be tagged on GitHub but never deployed or finalized - silently. The group was not load-bearing anyway, since the atomic non-forced branch push already makes a concurrent release fail visibly. Removing it trades a silent failure back for a loud one. Check the tag ancestry in publish instead of finalize-release. The check is equivalent against the branch tip, because the release commit is always a child of it, and running it before the deploy means a release cut from an unrelated commit fails while it can still be retried. Maven Central artifacts are immutable once published. Lease the tag update. The ancestry check reads the tag as fetched at checkout, but `+refs/tags/...` would then overwrite whatever the remote holds at push time. The push now leases against the OID observed during the check - the tag ref itself, not the commit it peels to - with an empty expectation when the tag did not exist. A tag moved by anyone else in between fails the push, and --atomic means the branch does not move either. Guard against a release moving the branch backwards. The next development version is derived from the released version, so releasing a tag older than the branch's own version - which means the wrong branch was selected - would set the branch to versions that are already released. Deriving is still right for the common case: releasing v5.7.0 from main on 5.6.2-SNAPSHOT must land on 5.7.1-SNAPSHOT, not go back to 5.6.2-SNAPSHOT.
