Releases

All releases are published using GitHub releases. Anyone with push access to the repository can create a new release.

Versioning

We should follow Git's versioning scheme, and only increment the build number for other changes like incremementing Git LFS or packaging changes

Examples:

  • testing - v2.12.0-rc0
  • stable - v2.12.0-1

Release Process

  1. git tag {version} the version you wish to publish.
  2. git push --follow-tags to ensure all new commits (and the tag) are pushed to the remote. Pushing the tag will start the release process.
  3. Wait a few minutes for the build to finish (look for the build in https://github.com/desktop/dugite-native/actions)
  4. Once the build is complete it will create a new draft release with all of the assets and suggested release notes

Confirm the changelog makes sense. Feel free to remove any infrastructure changes from the changelog entries, as the release should be focused on user-facing changes.

Once you're happy with the release, press Publish and you're done 🎉
