## Releasing Gitea
|
||||
|
||||
* Let $vmaj, $vmin and $vpat be Major, Minor and Patch version numbers, $vpat should be rc1, rc2, 0, 1, ...... $vmaj.$vmin will be kept the same as milestones on github or gitea in future.
|
||||
* Before releasing, confirm all the version's milestone issues or PRs has been resolved. Then discuss the release on discord channel #maintainers and get agreed with almost all the owners and mergers. Or you can declare the version and if nobody against in about serval hours.
|
||||
* If this is a big version, then you have to create a new branch named `release/v$vmaj.$vmin`
|
||||
* Create PR for changelog on branch `release/v$vmaj.$vmin`
|
||||
* After your PR reviewed and merged, and CI passed, add a tag as `git tag -s -F release.notes v$vmaj.$vmin.$`, release.notes file could be a temporory file to only include the changelog this version which you added to `CHANGELOG.md`.
|
||||
* And then push the tag as `git push origin v$vmaj.$vmin.$`. Drone CI will automatically created a release and upload all the compiled binary. (But currently it didn't add the release notes automatically. Maybe we should fix that.)
|
||||
* Send PR for changelog on branch `master`.
|
||||
* Send PR to [blog repository](https://github.com/go-gitea/blog) announcing the release.
