tag hi banado na jab release nahi karna toh ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Mujhe laga tag mein date nahi dikhti. Apparently dikhti hai. Chalega tag bhi.

A tag is better, if not going for a release.. because writing release notes is pain in itself :/

We don't necessarily have to write release notes. Making a release creates a tag anyway, and we can keep track of changes.

It is not possible to update data using a github actions workflow.

• For 1st year timetable, the PDF parsing is not accurate for some pages and need to be fixed manually.
• Even for other years, sometimes the slots format may change in ERP(like it did in Spring 24)

In that case it would be good to open a PR using the workflow. The maintainers can manually review and make changes to the PR.

The current workflow is:

1. Get 1st year pdf from ERP
2. Run update script(it parses pdf file to xlsx file)
3. got errors in parsing
4. check what is the error in xlsx file(usually a column is parsed twice)
5. manually fix errors(in code not xlsx file)
6. run update script again
7. 1st year scraper run successfully and it creates a json file will all 1st year data
8. for other years scraper, erp-login-go package is used and it would prompt for credentials and otp. After successful login, all data would be fetched. It updates the json file created in previous step.

Many of these steps can be automated. If there is an error, the code can be updated and the rest of the workflow can still be automates.
