-Create release candidates for ``llvm``, ``clang``, ``dragonegg``, and the LLVM
-``test-suite`` by tagging the branch with the respective release candidate
-number.  For instance, to create **Release Candidate 1** you would issue the
-following commands:
+Tag release candidates using the tag.sh script in utils/release.
