The above says
Squash merge the release pull request with message "
Release <VERSION>"
while we have "Release: $VERSION" (note the colon) here. Is this difference important?
Also, since we create an annotated tag here, is it still important to have the message for the merge commit?

We can definitely use the same wording for the tag and the commit, but the difference isn't important.
I don't understand the question about the annotated tag, sorry.

Thanks for explaining.
Unlike a lightweight tag, an annotated tag (created with -a) has its own independent metadata, such as commit message, so that it does not rely on the commit message of the actual commit it points to. Yeah I agree it's not really important here.
