Release Process

Documentation updates and test fixes that only touch test files don't require a release or tag. You can just merge these changes into main once they have been approved.

Creating a release

  1. Create a new release in GitHub by clicking on "Releases" and then "Draft a new release"

  2. Set the Tag version to a new tag, using Semantic Versioning as a guideline.

  3. Set the Target as main.

  4. Set the Release title to the tag you created, vX.Y.Z

  5. Use the description section to describe why you're releasing and what changes you've made. You should include links to merged PRs. Use the following headers in the description of your release:

    • BREAKING CHANGES: Use this for any changes that aren't backwards compatible. Include details on how to handle these changes.
    • FEATURES: Use this for any large new features added,
    • ENHANCEMENTS: Use this for smaller new features added
    • BUG FIXES: Use this for any bugs that were fixed.
    • NOTES: Use this section if you need to include any additional notes on things like upgrading, upcoming deprecations, or any other information you might want to highlight.

    Markdown example:

    ENHANCEMENTS
    * Add description of new small feature (#3)[link-to-pull-request]
    
    BUG FIXES
    * Fix description of a bug (#2)[link-to-pull-request]
    * Fix description of another bug (#1)[link-to-pull-request]
  6. Don't attach any binaries. The zip and tar.gz assets are automatically created and attached after you publish your release.

  7. Click "Publish release" to save and publish your release.
