Description

Trying to figure out how to use GitVersioning during my git-flow-structured release process. Having an outline of example release process using GitVersioning would be helpful in bridging that gap.

In my specific case, trying to reconcile deriving version numbers from branch names vs. tag names, and if the publishing the release happens before or after the the release branch is merged onto master.
