Check and review CHANGELOG.md for the expected result.
Check for open pull-requests by Transifex or pull the files manually.
See TRANSLATION.
This will make sure we mention everyone that has contributed to Terminator.
git log --use-mailmap | grep ^Author: | cut -f2- -d' ' | grep -v ^Launchpad | sort | uniq | sed 's/^/* /' | cat .authors.header - .authors.footer > AUTHORS
Make sure to review the list, and update .mailmap when it is necessary.
Commit these changes to the "master" branch:
git add terminatorlib/version.py CHANGELOG.md RELEASE.md
git commit -v -m "Release version $VERSION"
git push origin master
And tag it with a signed tag:
git tag -s -m "Version $VERSION" v$VERSION
Push the tag.
git push --tags
To provide a signed tarball for distributions we use sdist and gpg:
VERSION=$(git describe --tags | sed s/^v//)
GPGKEY=$(git config --get user.email)
mkdir -p dist
git archive HEAD --prefix terminator-${VERSION}/ -o dist/terminator-${VERSION}.tar.gz
gpg -u ${GPGKEY} --armor \
--output dist/terminator-${VERSION}.tar.gz.asc \
--detach-sig dist/terminator-${VERSION}.tar.gz
Now update the tag to a release on GitHub, and add the artifacts: https://github.com/gnome-terminator/terminator/releases
Make sure to add the proper section from CHANGELOG.md as description to the release.
