Preparing a release¶

Things to do for releasing:

announce intent to release on gitter
check for open issues / pull requests that really should be in the release
- come back when these are done
- … or ignore them and do another release next week
check for deprecations “long enough ago” (two months or two releases, whichever is longer)
- remove affected code
Do the actual release changeset
- bump version number
  increment as per Semantic Versioning rules
  
  remove +dev tag from version number
- Run towncrier
  review history change
  
  git rm changes
- commit
push to your personal repository
create pull request to python-trio/trio’s “master” branch
verify that all checks succeeded
tag with vVERSION, push tag on python-trio/trio (not on your personal repository)

push to PyPI:

git clean -xdf   # maybe run 'git clean -xdn' first to see what it will delete
python3 setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
twine upload dist/*
