How to make a release

These instructions assumes that the version you are making is 21.0.0.

Generate changelog

Run proclamation in the doc/changes.

proclamation build 21.0.0 --delete-fragments --overwrite

Commit changes, split in two commits to help unrolling or editing changes.

git commit -m"doc: Update CHANGELOG.md" doc/CHANGELOG.md
git commit -m"doc: Remove old changelog fragments" doc/changes

Update versions

Edit the files

• CMakelists.txt
• src/xrt/state_trackers/oxr/oxr_instance.c

See previous commits for exact places.

git commit -a -m"monado: Update version"

Tag the code

Do the tagging from git, do not do it from gitlab, also make sure to prefix the version with v so that 21.0.0 becomes v21.0.0.

git tag v21.0.0 -m"v21.0.0"

Do gitlab release

The Gitlab UI has a friendly interface, follow the guide there.
