Recommending users install a tag leads to them never updating to later (patch) versions. We should follow GitHub best practices and recommend a major version tag instead.

Please note that a v2 tag will need to be created first.

Turns out GitHub doesn't recommend using a branch but force pushing a tag, same concept though: https://github.com/actions/toolkit/blob/master/docs/action-versioning.md
