# Release checklist
This file can be used as-is, or copied into the GitHub PR description which includes
necessary changes for the upcoming release.
## Version bump
This section can be done by running `scripts/version-bump.sh` with the new version
as an argument.
- [ ] Create a new branch for the required changes for this release.
- [ ] Update version in `Cargo.toml`. Run `cargo build` to update `Cargo.lock`.
Make sure to `git add` the `Cargo.lock` changes as well.
- [ ] Find the current min. supported Rust version by running
`grep rust-version Cargo.toml`.
- [ ] Update the `fd` version and the min. supported Rust version in `README.md`.
- [ ] Update `CHANGELOG.md`. Change the heading of the *"Upcoming release"* section
to the version of this release.
## Pre-release checks and updates
- [ ] Install the latest version (`cargo install --locked -f --path .`) and make
sure that it is available on the `PATH` (`fd --version` should show the
new version).
- [ ] Review `-h`, `--help`, and the `man` page.
- [ ] Run `fd -h` and copy the output to the *"Command-line options"* section in
the README. This can be done by running `gawk -i inplace -f scripts/update-help.awk README.md`.
- [ ] Push all changes and wait for CI to succeed (before continuing with the
next section).
- [ ] Optional: manually test the new features and command-line options described
in the `CHANGELOG.md`.
- [ ] Run `cargo publish --dry-run` to make sure that it will succeed later
(after creating the GitHub release).
## Release
- [ ] Merge your release branch (should be a fast-forward merge).
- [ ] Create a tag and push it: `git tag vX.Y.Z; git push origin tag vX.Y.Z`.
This will trigger the deployment via GitHub Actions.
REMINDER: If your `origin` is a fork, don't forget to push to e.g. `upstream`
instead.
- [ ] Go to https://github.com/sharkdp/fd/releases/new to create the new
release. Select the new tag and also use it as the release title. For the
release notes, copy the corresponding section from `CHANGELOG.md` and
possibly add additional remarks for package maintainers.
Publish the release.
- [ ] Check if the binary deployment works (archives and Debian packages should
appear when the CI run *for the Git tag* has finished).
- [ ] Publish to crates.io by running `cargo publish` in a *clean* repository.
One way to do this is to clone a fresh copy.
## Post-release
- [ ] Prepare a new *"Upcoming release"* section at the top of `CHANGELOG.md`.
Put this at the top:
# Upcoming release
## Features
## Bugfixes
## Changes
