Aug 1, 2025August 2025: Implemented Release Process Automation to enforce Node.js version consistency in the Heroku CLI release workflow. Updated .tool-versions to Node.js 20.19.4 and added update-node-version-to-latest script to automate installing the specified Node.js version via asdf during releases. This standardizes environments across releases, reducing drift and speeding up release readiness. The change is captured in commit dd36ca72bfba69139dd2a6716eb65b52012e9ff7 (W-19318515 fix: update to 20.19.4, add install to update script).
