## Release Procedures
When the time comes to release another version of XMonad and Contrib...
1. Create a release branch (e.g., `release-0.XX`).
This will allow you to separate the release process from main
development. Changes you make on this branch will be merged back
into `master` as one of the last steps.
2. Update the version number in the `*.cabal` files and verify
dependencies and documentation. This includes the `tested-with:`
field.
3. Use the [packdeps][] tool to ensure you have the dependency
versions correct. If you need to update the version of a
dependency then you should rebuild and retest.
4. Review documentation files and make sure they are accurate:
- `README.md`
- `CHANGES.md`
- and the `example-config.hs` in the `xmonad-testing` repo
5. Generate the manpage:
* `cabal configure` with the `-fgeneratemanpage` flag
* Build the project
* Run the `generatemanpage` tool from the top level of this repo
* Review the man page: `man -l man/xmonad.1`
6. Tag the repository with the release version (e.g., `v0.13`)
7. Build the project tarballs (`cabal sdist`)
8. Upload the packages to Hackage (`cabal upload`)
9. Merge the release branches into `master`
10. Update the website:
* Generate and push haddocks with `xmonad-web/gen-docs.sh`
* Check that `tour.html` and `intro.html` are up to date, and
mention all core bindings
11. Update the topic for the IRC channel (`#xmonad`)
12. Send the `announce-0.XX.txt` file to:
- XMonad mailing list
- Haskell Cafe
