Release process

All releases

This document simply outlines the release process:

  1. Ensure you are running on the oldest supported Erlang version

  2. Remove all -dev extension from versions (see below for all files)

  3. Ensure CHANGELOG is updated and add current date

  4. If a new vMAJOR.MINOR, replace "master" with "vVERSION" in the "Deprecations" page and commit

  5. If a new vMAJOR.MINOR, create a new branch "vMAJOR.MINOR" and set CANONICAL= in Makefile

  6. Commit changes above with title "Release vVERSION" and generate new tag

  7. Run make clean test to ensure all tests pass from scratch and the CI is green

  8. Recompile an existing project (for example, Ecto) to ensure manifests can be upgraded

  9. Push branch and the new tag

  10. Publish new zips with make zips, upload Precompiled.zip and Docs.zip to GitHub Releases

  11. Add the release to elixir.csv and _data/elixir-versions.yml files in elixir-lang/elixir-lang.github.com

  12. After a new vMAJOR.MINOR, move back to master, bump versions, start new CHANGELOG, add -dev back and commit "Start vMAJOR.MINOR+1"
