Can you walk me through the usecase of deleting a release be updating an existing release?

I'm kind of abusing the release system by keeping a single release and uploading an asset to it every time it gets rebuilt. Deleting it is useful to update the last modification date.

Looks like other people have a use for this. Please consider merging.

Will this be merged? It seems useful when keeping a pre-release of the latest commit.

In CI, we can just:

wget https://github.com/probonopd/linuxdeployqt/releases/download/continuous/linuxdeployqt-continuous-x86_64.AppImage

The continuous release tag always points to the latest build.
