Here are a couple of useful commands: - - git diff (no output) - - git status (should report "nothing to commit") - - git log master...origin (no output; note: *3* dots) - -2) Increment pixman_(major|minor|micro) in configure.ac according to - the directions in that file. - -3) Make sure that new version works, including - - - make distcheck passes - - - the X server still works with the new pixman version - installed - - - the cairo test suite hasn't gained any new failures compared - to last pixman version. - -4) Use "git commit" to record the changes made in step 2 and 3. - -5) Generate and publish the tar files by running - - make PREV=<last version> GPGKEY=<your gpg key id> release-publish - - If your freedesktop user name is different from your local one, - then also set the variable USER to your freedesktop user name. - -6) Run - - make release-publish-message - - to generate a draft release announcement. Edit it as appropriate and - send it to - - cairo-announce@cairographics.org - - pixman@lists.freedesktop.org - - xorg-announce@lists.freedesktop.org - -7) Increment pixman_micro to the next larger (odd) number in - configure.ac. Commit this change, and push all commits created - during this process using - - git push - git push --tags - - You must use "--tags" here; otherwise the new tag will not - be pushed out. - -8) Change the topic of the #cairo IRC channel on freenode to advertise - the new version. |
