+??? warning Amending your release commit
+
+    If for some reason you need to amend your release commit (e.g you made a typo
+    in the changelog), **make sure to retag afterwards!**
+
+    Amending a commit will change its hash, but the tag will remain attached to
+    the previous (now dangling) commit.
+
+    Here's is how to amend your changes and retag:
+    ```sh
+    # Amend changes
+    git commit --amend --no-edit
+
+    # Retag while reusing the previous tag's annotation
+    git tag -l --format='%(contents)' vX.Y.Z > tag_msg.tmp
+    git tag -F tag_msg.tmp -as -f vX.Y.Z
+    rm tag_msg.tmp
+    ```
+
+    Note: **DO NOT** retag if you already pushed you changes. If you made a
+    mistake (it happens to everybody), just create a new release.
+
 
 ## Step 3
 
+Check that the release commit is properly tagged:
+```sh
+# Either with git log (colorful, also shows the branches/tags on the remote)
+git log --pretty=oneline -3
+
+# Or using git tag (only shows the tag(s) pointing to HEAD)
+git tag --points-at HEAD
+```
+
+If not, go back to step 2.
+
+
+## Step 4
+
+Edit `shard.yml` again to add `-dev` to the version string. If you didn't already, also add a "future version" title line to the
+top of the changelog under which future PR will be listed.

+
+Commit your changes:
+```
+git add CHANGELOG.md shard.yml
+git commit -S -m "Prepare for next release"
+```
+
+# Step 5
+
 Once you have checked everything, push to GitHub:
 ```sh
 git push origin master
-git push upstream vX.Y.Z
+git push origin vX.Y.Z
 ```
