Release Checklist
=================

* make sure the tests are happy on all supported versions,

  You can use the `contrib/merge-test-compat.sh` to merge with the test
  compatibility branches.

* make sure there is no code difference between the compat branches and stable
  (no diff within `hgext3rd/`),

* update the `testedwith` variable for all extensions (remove '.dev'):

  - hgext3rd/evolve/metadata.py
  - hgext3rd/topic/__init__.py
  - hgext3rd/pullbundle.py

* make sure the changelog is up to date,

* add a date to the changelog entry for the target version,

* update the `__version__` field of all relevant extensions:

  - hgext3rd/evolve/metadata.py
  - hgext3rd/topic/__init__.py
  - hgext3rd/pullbundle.py (if touched)

* create a new Debian entry:

  - debchange --newversion x.y.z-1 "new upstream release"
  - debchange --release

* sanity check install and sdist targets of setup.py:

  - python setup.py install --home=$(mktemp -d)
  - python setup.py sdist

* tag the commit,

* push and publish the tag,

* upload the tarball to PyPI,

* make an announcement on [e-mail] (possibly on
  [e-mail] too),

* bump versions of all extensions and add '.dev' (see existing commits as an
  example):

  - hgext3rd/evolve/metadata.py
  - hgext3rd/topic/__init__.py
  - hgext3rd/pullbundle.py

  The version we use on the stable branch during development should be
  `x.y.z+1.dev`. The version of the default branch should be `x.y+1.0.dev`.

* merge stable into default.
