c-ares release procedure - how to do a release 
============================================== 
 
in the source code repo 
----------------------- 
 
- edit `RELEASE-NOTES` to be accurate 
 
- edit `Makefile.am`'s `CARES_VERSION_INFO`, and `CMakeLists.txt`'s 
  `CARES_LIB_VERSIONINFO` set to the same value to denote the current shared 
  object versioning. 
 
- make sure all relevant changes are committed on the master branch 
 
- tag the git repo in this style: `git tag -a cares-1_14_0` -a annotates the 
  tag and we use underscores instead of dots in the version number. 
 
- run "./maketgz 1.14.0" to build the release tarball. It is important that 
  you run this on a machine with the correct set of autotools etc installed 
  as this is what then will be shipped and used by most users on *nix like 
  systems. 
 
- push the git commits and the new tag 
 
- gpg sign the tarball 
 
- upload the resulting files to https://c-ares.haxx.se/download/ 
 
- update `ares_version.h` for the next version 
 
in the c-ares-www repo 
---------------------- 
 
- edit `index.t` (version number and date), 
 
- edit `changelog.t` (add the new release in there) 
 
- commit all local changes 
 
- tag the repo with the same tag as used for the source repo 
 
- push the git commits and the new tag 
 
inform 
------ 
 
- send an email to the c-ares mailing list. Insert the RELEASE-NOTES into the 
  mail. 
 
celebrate
