Release instructions

Pre-release checks

These should run successfully:

  • go test ./...;
  • golangci-lint run ./...;
  • go fmt ./... (should not change any files);
  • go mog tidy (should not change any files);
  • ./prepare.sh /path/to/neofs-api/on/your/machine (should not change any files).

Writing changelog

Add an entry to the CHANGELOG.md following the style established there. Add an optional codename(for not patch releases), version and release date in the heading. Write a paragraph describing the most significant changes done in this release. Add Fixed, Added, Removed and Updated sections with fixed bug, new features and other changes.

Open Pull Request (must receive at least one approval) and merge this changes.

Tag a release

Use vX.Y.Z tag for releases and vX.Y.Z-rc.N for release candidates following the semantic versioning standard.

Update your local master branch after approved and merged CHANGELOG.md changes. Tag a release (must be signed) and push it:

$ git tag -s vX.Y.Z[-rc.N] && git push origin vX.Y.Z[-rc.N]

Make a Github release

Using Github's web interface create a new release based on just created tag with the same changes from changelog and publish it.

Close github milestone

Close corresponding vX.Y.Z github milestone.
