Sequence#

enable git signing

git config commit.gpgsign true
git config user.signingkey ${gpg_signing_key}

setup a bare git repository serving static pages. Follow this blog post
if you need to publish a package on AUR follow the instructions
finish working on the development branch
```
cd ${project_directory}
```

check that the current branch is not master

git branch --no-color --show-current
# dev

if you need to publish a new asciinema video follow the instructions
commit
```
git add -A
git commit
git push
```
update version numbers
- ./setup.cfg
- ./docs/conf.py
- ./packages/*
if necessary update dependencies in
- ./requirements.txt
- ./requirements-dev.txt
- ./setup.cfg
and regenerate the pinned dependencies
```
make regenerate-freeze
```
Read the changelogs of the dependencies and decide what packages to update

run a final test

make uninstall-dev; make install-dev
make doc
make test
make install
cd ~ && python3 -c "import ${package_name}" && cd ${OLDPWD}
make uninstall
make clean

For each of these files update copyright years, emails and contributors
- ./README.md
- ./docs/conf.py
- ./docs/misc.rst
- all changed Python source files
- ./packages/*

commit

git add -A
make pre-commit
git commit
git push

update the documentation

make clean && make doc
rm -rf ~/html && cp -aR docs/_build/html ~
git branch --delete --force docs
git checkout --orphan docs
rm -rf .mypy_cache .venv
git rm --cached -r .
git clean -f && git clean -f -d
mv ~/html/{*,.buildinfo} .
git add -A
git commit --no-verify -m "New release"
git push --force deploy-docs docs

merge the branches and tag the release

git checkout master
git merge ${dev_branch}

tag the release.

git tag -s -a ${version_id}

Write a message like this. Use the infinitive tense

Release ${MAJOR}.${MINOR}.${PATCH}

- Item 1
- Item 2
- [ ... ]
- Item n

push the changes
```
git push
git push --tags
```

upload the package to PyPI if applicable

make install-dev
make clean
make dist
make upload

upload the package on the software page. Follow the instructions reported here
update downstream distribution packages. See the updating packages section
update other resources if applicable
- Free Software Directory
