# Trigger workflow manually
on:
  workflow_dispatch:
    inputs:
        release_type:
            description: 'Release Type'
            required: true 
            type: choice

  release:
    name: "[${{inputs.release_type}}] Release"

      - name: Verify Branch
        if: env.BRANCH_NAME != env.TRUNK_BRANCH_NAME
        run: |
          echo "ERROR: Attempting to release from branch ${{env.BRANCH_NAME}}. Release from ${{env.TRUNK_BRANCH_NAME}} branch only"
