ReleaseGuideline

Here are the steps to publishing a new release.

Prepare local develop branch:

git fetch origin
git checkout develop
git pull

Decide to increment either the major, minor and/or micro version numbers. Most of the time this will be the minor number. Now create a release branch based on the new version:

git checkout -b rel-0.2.0

Merge everything from develop, keep default "Merge ..." message:

git merge -X theirs origin/develop

Edit pypestutils/version.py like this:

- __version__ = "0.1.1.dev0"
+ __version__ = "0.2.0"

Edit CHANGELOG.md following Keep a Changelog as a guideline. To help populate changelog items, see https://github.com/pypest/pypestutils/compare/v0.1.0...develop using the previous version as a reference.

Create a commit for the release:

git add pypestutils/version.py
git add CHANGELOG.md
git commit -m "Release 0.2.0"
git push origin rel-0.2.0

On GitHub, create a new pull request, which should look like this:

Make sure tests pass, and (if needed) get feedback from others if the changelog looks ok. When ready, click "Squash and merge" should be good to go.
