Every GitHub release, including pre-releases, will notify any repository watchers. We were previously creating a new development release on every commit to main. This creates a lot of noise for anyone watching the repository. Many of these commits aren't meaningful enough to warrant creating a development release. The reason we did this was so we could run the cross-version tests using the latest changes in main in the form of a distribution. We feel we've outgrown this need and are removing the automated development releases. Instead, main will be tested by building from source and development releases will no longer be created on every commit. There will still be a way to create development releases manually for changes that are meaningful enough and need to be used before a proper release.
