A CI trigger that fires when a Git tag matching a pattern (e.g.,
v*, release-*) is pushed. The standard mechanism for kicking off
release pipelines — tag creation signals an intentional version
cut. Semantic version tags enable pipelines to extract the version
number and use it for package publishing, Docker image tagging,
and changelog generation. Often combined with GitHub Releases for
artifact distribution and release notes.
