Merge pull request #885 from Crown-Commercial-Service/dependabot/gith… #181

	# Create a release using the version number from the Python package
	#
	# This workflow is designed to create a GitHub release whenever a pull request
	# is merged to the main branch that updates the version number for this repo's
	# Python package.
	#
	# The release is created with the tag and name of the version number.
	#
	# If there already exists a tag for the package version number the release
	# should not be created.
