Releasing

This page describes how to release a new version of Flamenco. This requires not only access to the sources, but also to the flamenco.blender.org infrastructure. As such, it’s only practically helpful for a small number of people.

Steps to release a new version of Flamenco

Replace ${VERSION} with the actual version number.

Ensure that env variables are set in the .env file (see .env.example for reference)
Update CHANGELOG.md and mark the to-be-released version as released today.
Update web/project-website/data/flamenco.yaml for the new version.
Update Makefile and change the VERSION and RELEASE_CYCLE variables.
make update-version
git commit -m "Bump version to ${VERSION}"
git tag v${VERSION}
make release-package
Check that the files in dist/ are there and have a non-zero size.
make publish-release-packages to upload the packages to the website.
make project-website to generate and publish the new website.
git push && git push --tags
