Publish Major Version

Hi,

I have created a Sharepoint 2013 workflow for the users to "Publish" a document.  The logic will populate various meta data fields and send emails.  Finally I'd expected to find and call an Action "Publish Major Version on current item" .  However, as in most things sharepoint, what I need doesn't exist.  I have VS2012 and have read about building a custom activity.  Not sure what ToolBox objects would accomplish this however and can't find any documentation. 

In addition, if the item is checked out they can't start my workflow.  A pop up appears and asks that it be checked in first.  That defeats the purpose of this workflow.  Does anyone have any step by step solutions to building this?

Similar posts have not helped me.

Thanks.

Tom
