Shouldn't "delete a branch" and "create a tag" actions be re-ordered?

Removing the tag is something you do on github, creating the tag is something you do locally (to be able to sign it), so assuming you have the branch locally I don't think there's really a conflict in the order. But yeah.

Leaving as is for now. Might or might not fix on the next push.
