These are Bdale's notes on how to do a release.
+ confirm that doc/ has a release-notes file for the new release
+ - add a release notes file
+ - update doc/Makefile
+ - link release notes in doc/altusmetrum.xsl
+
update the version in configure.ac and commit
git tag -a <version>
at this point, we have Debian packages
+ git tag debian/<version>
+
make distclean
./autogen.sh --with-fat-dir=/home/bdale/web/altusmetrum/AltOS/releases
this pushes fresh documents to the web site
sudo debian/rules clean
+ git push
+ git push --tags
- leave the build tree in an unclutterd state
+ push commits and leave the build tree in an uncluttered state
