Looking at the Giant page, I spy a barrel adjuster on the upper brake arms. On my bikes with caliper brakes, I clamp the brake cable in the right spot so that I need to turn the barrel all the way out (but just before losing any thread engagement) in order to get the brake pads close enough to the rim. Then, wheel removal is a matter of opening the QR and adjusting the barrel all the way in. It allows a fully-inflated tire to pass through for me (28mm tires on 20mm rims), but I like Ben's idea to add an in-line QR or barrel adjuster to provide more slack if you need it.
