 2. **Set the Correct Version for Release**:
 
    - The development version (the current code on `main`) should be one patch version ahead of the latest PyPI release and therefore ready for the next step.
    - If a minor version bump is necessary, change it accordingly.

 3. **Perform Checks**:
 
-   - Ensure that no requirement files include pointers to `git`-based dependencies (including specific branches or commit hashes). All dependencies for a PyPI release should point to the released package versions that are available on conda-forge or PyPI.
