[caleb-johnson]

Previous: #77

Remaining action items:

• Update version [sub]string in all files where it appears in the repository
  • .mergify.yml
  • pyproject.toml
  • .github/workflows/docs.yml
• move release notes to 0.7 directory
• update any remaining 0.7 deprecation warnings from to a later release number
• merge everything except this PR on the milestone
• merge this PR
• build docs locally; proofread the release notes
• tag the release
  1. git checkout main
  2. git pull
  3. git show (verify it's the commit we want to tag)
  4. git tag -a 0.7.0 -m 0.7.0
  5. git show (double/triple check the tag is on the correct branch)
  6. git push origin 0.7.0
• Wait for CI to finish. The release should then be available on GitHub and pypi.
• create the stable/0.7 branch
  1. start with same commit as above checked out
  2. git checkout -b stable/0.7
  3. git show (check before pushing)
  4. git push --set-upstream origin stable/0.7
• get docs to deploy from the new stable branch (should happen automatically at this point after CI runs both on the new stable branch and then on the gh-pages branch)
• move remaining old milestone items to new milestone and close old milestones
