Maintaining Yorkie

Releasing a New Version

1. Update the version number.

2. Write changelog of this version in CHANGELOG.md.

Copy the release notes automatically generated by GitHub and categorize them as Added/Changed/Fixed.

1. Click on the Releases in GitHub.
2. Click on the Draft a new release button.
3. Create a new tag.
4. Click on the Generate release notes button.
5. Copy the content generated into the body and categorize each item.

3. Create Pull Request for changelog and merge it into main.

4. Build binaries to attach a new release.

Executing the following command will generate five zip files for each operating system in the binaries folder.

5. Publish a new release.

After creating the release in step 2, follow these steps:
