Process
-------
- Set release variables::
export VERSION=<version number>
export PREVIOUS=<previous version number>
export ORG="pygraphviz"
export REPO="pygraphviz"
If this is a prerelease:
export NOTES="doc/source/release/release_dev.rst"
If this is release:
export NOTES="doc/source/release/release_${VERSION}.rst"
git rm doc/source/release/release_dev.rst
- Autogenerate release notes::
changelist ${ORG}/${REPO} pygraphviz-${PREVIOUS} main --version ${VERSION} --out ${NOTES} --format rst
- Edit ``doc/source/_static/version_switcher.json`` in order to add the release, move the
key value pair `"preferred": true` to the most recent stable version, and commit.
- Update ``version`` in ``pygraphviz/__init__.py``.
- Commit changes::
git add pygraphviz/__init__.py ${NOTES} doc/source/_static/version_switcher.json
git commit -m "Designate ${VERSION} release"
- Tag the release in git::
git tag -s pygraphviz-${VERSION} -m "signed ${VERSION} tag"
If you do not have a gpg key, use -u instead; it is important for
Debian packaging that the tags are annotated
- Push the new meta-data to github::
git push --tags origin main
where ``origin`` is the name of the
``github.com:pygraphviz/pygraphviz`` repository
- Review the github release page::
https://github.com/pygraphviz/pygraphviz/tags
- Update documentation on the web:
The documentation is kept in a separate repo: pygraphviz/documentation
- Wait for the CI service to deploy to GitHub Pages
- Sync your branch with the remote repo: ``git pull``.
- Copy the documentation built by the CI service.
Assuming you are at the top-level of the ``documentation`` repo::
FIXME - use eol_banner.html
cp -a latest ../pygraphviz-${VERSION}
git reset --hard <commit from last release>
mv ../pygraphviz-${VERSION} .
rm -rf stable
cp -rf pygraphviz-${VERSION} stable
git add pygraphviz-${VERSION} stable
git commit -m "Add ${VERSION} docs"
git push force push---be careful!
- Update ``version`` in ``pygraphviz/__init__.py``.
- Commit changes::
git add pygraphviz/__init__.py
git commit -m 'Bump version'
git push origin main
