Revision as of 12:40, 17 April 2019

Tea
Pull and update
Run:
```
./tools/generateTranslationDiffs
```
Perform final language file updates.

Run:

dos2unix rtdata/languages/* and rtdata/profiles/*

Once RELEASE_NOTES.txt, language files, profiles, AppData, a new splash screen, etc. are ready, commit to new branch:
```
git checkout -b release-5.7 && git commit -a -m "Preparing for release 5.7-rc1"
```
Once others have revised the changes, merge this "release-5.7" branch into "releases":
```
git checkout releases
```
```
git pull
```
```
git merge release-5.7
```

Tag:

git tag -a "5.7-rc1" -m "Tagged RawTherapee 5.7-rc1"

git push origin "5.7-rc1"

and push

git push

Make a source tarball and upload it to the website:

./tools/generateSourceTarball

sha1sum rawtherapee-5.7-rc1.tar.xz > rawtherapee-5.7-rc1.tar.xz.sha1

When ready for a final release (5.7, not 5.7-rc1), do as above, merge release-5.7 into releases, tag and deleted release-5.7. Never delete branch releases.
