Research direction

Start by locating the release flow for releasing from an existing tag and run it against the two cases named in the issue: a tag that is not at head and a build commit that is not at the last tag. Inspect how the current release path validates these conditions. Done means the relevant edge cases are covered and the expected behavior is established.
