### How to make a new release

- Update/verify the **version** in the `VERSION` file.
- Update/verify that the `doc/source/changes.rst` changelog file was updated.
- Commit everything.
- Run `git tag -s <version>` to tag the version in Git.
- _Optionally_ create and activate a [virtual environment](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/installing-using-pip-and-virtual-environments/#creating-a-virtual-environment) using `venv` or `virtualenv`.\
(When run in a virtual environment, the next step will automatically take care of installing `build` and `twine` in it.)
- Run `make release`.
- Close the milestone mentioned in the _changelog_ and create a new one. _Do not reuse milestones by renaming them_.
- Go to [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/gitpython-developers/GitPython/releases) and publish a new one with the recently pushed tag. Generate the changelog.
