To release Taskwarrior, follow this process:
- Examine the changes since the last version, and update
src/commands/CmdNews.cpp
accordingly. There are instructions at the top of the file. - Create a release PR
- Update version in CMakeLists.txt
- Update Changelog
- get this merged
- On
develop
after that PR merges, create a release tarball:git clone . release-tarball
cd release-tarball/
cmake -S. -Bbuild
make -Cbuild package_source
- copy build/task-*.tar.gz elsewhere and delete the
release-tarball
dir - NOTE: older releases had a
test-*.tar.gz
but it's unclear how to generate this
- Update
stable
to the released commit and push upstream - Tag the commit as vX.Y.Z and push the tag upstream
- Find the tag under https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/taskwarrior/tags and create a release from it
- Give it a clever title if you can think of one; refer to previous releases
- Include the tarball from earlier
- Update https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/tw.org
- Add a new item in
content/news
- Update
data/projects.json
