Releasing

The exact steps for releasing will vary; but this is an approach taken by the Synapse developers (assuming a Unix-like shell):

1. Set a shell variable to the version you are releasing (this just makes subsequent steps easier):

   version=X.Y.Z

2. Update setup.cfg so that the version is correct.

3. Stage the changed files and commit.

   git add -u
   git commit -m v$version -n

4. Push your changes.

   git push

5. When ready, create a signed tag for the release:

   git tag -s v$version

   Base the tag message on the changelog.

6. Push the tag.

   git push origin tag v$version

7. If applicable: Create a release, based on the tag you just pushed, on GitHub or GitLab.

8. If applicable: Create a source distribution and upload it to PyPI:

   python -m build
   twine upload dist/matrix_common-$version*
