A tool named gon is used to notarize the macOS release binaries. This tool must be configured with the credentials to be used for the notarization. In addition to the always mandatory Apple ID username and password, it is also necessary to specify the App Store Connect provider in cases where the user is a member of multiple Apple Developer Program teams.
A tool named gon is used to notarize the macOS release binaries. The original gon tool is now nonfunctional due to its use of the altool tool, which is no longer permitted by Apple. Fortunately a fork of gon was created and the migration from altool to notarytool completed in that fork. So the release workflows are hereby migrated to using the functional fork of gon.
