DevNotes_Processeses_ReleaseAutomationScript

Release automation script (work in progress)

Release automation script is located in build_tools and covers following

• Setups init and license files
• Generates zenodo doi and writes to the init file
• Templates release notes

Running script

• cd SASVIEW_WORKSPACE (folder where you have both sasview and sasmodels folders)
• create release branches in sasview and sasmodels (script will write to these folders and you probably want to make pull requests out of them)
• Run python sasview/build_tools/release_automation.py with arguments
  • '-v' sasview version e.g. 5.0.4
