Create a tag using the following command:

```sh
$ git tag <vx.y.z> <commit-sha> -sm 'YYYY-MM-DD Node.js vx.y.z (Release Type) Release'
$ git secure-tag <vx.y.z> <commit-sha> -sm 'YYYY-MM-DD Node.js vx.y.z (Release Type) Release'
```

The tag **must** be signed using the GPG key that's listed for you on the project README.
