@ -68,6 +68,16 @@ Here are the steps Roger takes when putting out a new Tor release:
to a release-0.2.x branch, manually commit the changelogs to the later
git branches too.
If you're doing the first stable release in a series, you need to
create a ReleaseNotes for the series as a whole. To get started
there, copy all of the Changelog entries from the series into a new
file, and run `./scripts/maint/sortChanges.py` on it. That will
group them by category. Then kill every bugfix entry for fixing
bugs that were introduced within that release series; those aren't
relevant changes since the last series. At that point, it's time
to start sorting and condensing entries. (Generally, we don't edit the
text of existing entries, though.)
4. In `maint-0.2.x`, bump the version number in `configure.ac` and run
`scripts/maint/updateVersions.pl` to update version numbers in other
places, and commit. Then merge `maint-0.2.x` into `release-0.2.x`.
