Release Checklist

This document assists maintainers with creating a new Deis product release. Please update it to agree with any changes in the process.

Follow these instructions from top to bottom, skipping the sections that do not apply.

Patch Release

  • Check out the previous release tag

    • git checkout vA.B.C

  • Pull in specific bug-fix commits

    • git cherry-pick <commit-ish>...

  • Bump the patch version numbers:

  • Commit and push the tag

    • git commit -a -m 'chore(release): update version to vA.B.D'
    • git tag vA.B.D
    • git push --tags origin vA.B.D
