Release instructions

Pre-release checks

These should run successfully:

  • make all;
  • make test;
  • make lint (should not change any files);
  • go mod tidy (should not change any files);

Make release commit

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

Create release branch from the master branch of the origin repository:

$ git checkout -b release/<vX.Y.Z>

Update versions

Write new revision number into the root VERSION file:

$ echo <vX.Y.Z> > VERSION

Writing changelog

Use keepachangelog as a reference. Add an entry to the CHANGELOG.md following the style established there.

  • copy Unreleased section (next steps relate to section below Unreleased)
  • replace Unreleased link with the new revision number
  • update Unreleased...new and new...old diff-links at the bottom of the file
  • add optional codename and release date in the heading
  • make sure all changes have references to issues in #123 format (if possible)
  • check master branch and milestone page for missing changes
  • remove all empty subsections such as Added, Removed, etc.
  • clean up Unreleased section and leave it empty

Make release commit

Stage changed files for commit using git add. Commit the changes:

$ git commit -s -m 'Release <vX.Y.Z>'

Open pull request

Push release branch:

$ git push <origin> release/<vX.Y.Z>

Open pull request to the master branch of the origin repository so that the maintainers check the changes. Remove release branch after the merge.

Tag the release

Pull the main branch with release commit created in previous step.

$ git checkout master && git pull
$ git tag -a <vX.Y.Z>

Write a short description for the tag, e.g. Release vX.Y.Z

Push the release tag

$ git push <upstream> <vX.Y.Z>

Post-release

Prepare and push images to a Docker Hub (if not automated)

Create Docker images for all applications and push them into Docker Hub (requires organization privileges)

$ git checkout <vX.Y.Z>
$ make image
$ docker push truecloudlab/frostfs-s3-gw:<X.Y.Z>

Make public release page (if not automated)

Create a new release page and copy description from CHANGELOG.md. Build release binaries and attach them to the release. Publish the release.

Update development environments

Prepare pull-request in frostfs-devenv with new versions.

Prepare pull-request in frostfs-aio with new versions.

Close milestone

Look up forgejo milestones and close the release one if exists.

Create support branch

For major or minor release, create support branch in the upstream if it does not exist yet.

$ git checkout <vX.Y.0>
$ git checkout -b support/<vX.Y>
$ git push <upstream> support/<vX.Y>
