- Update the version in the gemspec (and the factory_bot version, if necessary)
and run
bundle install
- Update
NEWS.md
to reflect the changes since last release. - Commit changes. There shouldn't be code changes, and thus CI doesn't need to run, so you can add "[ci skip]" to the commit message.
- Tag the release:
git tag -s vVERSION
- We recommend the quick guide on how to sign a release from git ready.
- Push changes:
git push && git push --tags
- Build and publish:
gem build factory_bot_rails.gemspec gem push factory_bot_rails-VERSION.gem
- Add a new GitHub release using the recent
NEWS.md
as the content. Sample URL: https://github.com/thoughtbot/factory_bot_rails/releases/new?tag=vVERSION - Announce the new release, making sure to say "thank you" to the contributors who helped shape this version!
