To release a new version of ocis-thumbnails, you have to follow a few simple steps.

Preperation

1. Create a new branch e.g. release-x.x.x where x.x.x is the version you want to release.
2. Checkout the preparation branch.
3. Create a new changelog folder and move the unreleased snippets there. {{< highlight txt >}} mkdir changelog/x.x.x_yyyy-MM-dd/ # yyyy-MM-dd is the current date mv changelog/unreleased/* changelog/x.x.x_yyyy-MM-dd/ {{< / highlight >}}
4. Commit and push the changes {{< highlight txt >}} git add --all git commit -m "prepare release x.x.x" git push {{< / highlight >}}
5. Create a pull request to the master branch.

Release

1. After the preparation branch has been merged update your local master. {{< highlight txt >}} git checkout master git pull {{< / highlight >}}
2. Create a new tag (preferably signed). {{< highlight txt >}} git tag -s vx.x.x -m "release vx.x.x" git push --tags {{< / highlight >}}
3. Wait for CI and check that the GitHub release was published.

Congratulations, you just released ocis-thumbnails!
