Blame
  • Release checklist

    When changing the version, run build-scripts/update-version.sh X Y Z, where X Y Z are the major version, minor version, and patch level. So 2 28 1 means "change the version to 2.28.1". This script does much of the mechanical work.

    New feature release

    • Update WhatsNew.txt

    • Bump version number to 2.EVEN.0:

      • ./build-scripts/update-version.sh 2 EVEN 0
    • Do the release

    • Update the website file include/header.inc.php to reflect the new version

    New bugfix release

    • Check that no new API/ABI was added

      • If it was, do a new feature release (see above) instead
    • Bump version number from 2.Y.Z to 2.Y.(Z+1) (Y is even)

      • ./build-scripts/update-version.sh 2 Y Z+1
    • Do the release

    • Update the website file include/header.inc.php to reflect the new version

    After a feature release

    • Create a branch like release-2.24.x

    • Bump version number to 2.ODD.0 for next development branch

      • ./build-scripts/update-version.sh 2 ODD 0

    New development prerelease

    • Bump version number from 2.Y.Z to 2.Y.(Z+1) (Y is odd)

      • ./build-scripts/update-version.sh 2 Y Z+1
    • Do the release
