Creating a release

The release of the new version of Pyenv is done via GitHub Releases.

Release checklist:

  • Start drafting a new release on GitHub to generate a summary of changes.
    Type the would-be tag name in the "Choose a tag" field and press "Generate release notes"
    • The summary may need editing. E.g. rephrase entries, delete/merge entries that are too minor or irrelevant to the users (e.g. typo fixes, CI)
  • Update CHANGELOG.md with the new version number and the edited summary (only the changes section)
  • Push the version number in libexec/pyenv---version
    • Minor version is pushed if there are significant functional changes (not e.g. bugfixes/formula adaptations/supporting niche use cases).
    • Major version is pushed if there are breaking changes
  • Commit the changes locally into master
  • Create a new tag locally with the same name as specified in the new release window
  • Push the changes including the tag
  • In the still open new release window, press "Publish release". The now-existing tag will be used.
