If anything fails during releasing, you end up with a messed up state and have to clean up the things that abra did, which you might not even know it did. To mitigate this and make releasing more robust, I propose to make abra recipe release atomic (as much as possible). Implementing that would mean:

starting with a clean git state: #682
if anything fails during execution, clean up what has been done (reset to previous commit)
since pushing is done last, everything before should be reversible locally
the commits and tag should be pushed together atomically (via git push --atomic)
optional: at first check if there are upstream changes to the main/current branch, abort if there are
- this might save you time entering inputs that would be lost in case of push failure (mostly release notes), would catch push conflicts as well as network issues
