| Notes to myself on all the steps to make for a Ninja release. |
| |
| Push new release branch: |
| 1. Consider sending a heads-up to the ninja-build mailing list first |
| 2. update src/version.cc with new version (with ".git"), commit to master |
| 3. git checkout release; git merge master |
| 4. fix version number in src/version.cc (it will likely conflict in the above) |
| 5. fix version in doc/manual.asciidoc |
| 6. commit, tag, push (don't forget to push --tags) |
| 7. construct release notes from prior notes |
