Release Process

  • Check that licenses are current with make verify-licenses

  • Regenerate documentation with make all from within the tools/convert folder.

    • If there have been changes to rules.md, you may need to manually modify the rules_complete.yaml to reflect the same change.

  • If either refinery_config.md or refinery_rules.md were modified in this release, you must also open a docs PR and update these files there under layouts/shortcodes/subpages/refinery/.

    • Replace the underscores (_) in the filenames with a dash (-) or the docs linter will be upset.
    • Address any feedback from the the docs team and apply that feedback back into this repo.

  • After addressing any docs changes, add release entry to changelog.

    • Use this command to get a list of all commits since last release:
    git log <last-release-tag>..HEAD --pretty='%Creset- %s | [%an](https://github.com/%an)'

  • Copy the output from the command above into the top of changelog

    • fix each https://github.com/<author-name> to point to the correct github username (the git log command can't do this automatically)

    • organize each commit based on their prefix into below three categories:

          ### Features
     - <a-commit-with-feat-prefix>

    ### Fixes
     - <a-commit-with-fix-prefix>

    ### Maintenance
     - <a-commit-with-maintenance-prefix>

  • Add a summary of release changes to release notes

  • Commit changes, push, and open a release preparation pull request for review.

  • Once the pull request is merged, fetch the updated main branch.

  • Apply a tag for the new version on the merged commit (e.g. git tag -a v1.4.1 -m "v1.4.1")

  • Push the tag upstream (this will kick off the release pipeline in CI) e.g. git push origin v1.4.1

  • Ensure that there is a draft GitHub release created as part of CI publish steps.

  • Click "generate release notes" in GitHub for full changelog notes and any new contributors

  • Publish the GitHub draft release

  • Update the appVersion and any relevant chart changes in helm-charts
