## Releasing ## Releasing
Example for 1.2.0; substitute the real version throughout.
1. Update the version in `internal/brand/brand.go` and `docs/mapsize.1`,
and add a `## 1.2.0` section to CHANGELOG.md. Commit.
2. Tag and push:
```sh ```sh
git tag -a v1.0.0 -m "mapsize 1.0.0" git tag -a v1.2.0 -m "mapsize 1.2.0"
make release # bin/release: archives, .deb/.rpm/.apk/Arch, SHA256SUMS git push origin master v1.2.0
``` ```
3. Build everything (archives, .deb/.rpm/.apk/Arch packages, SHA256SUMS
The version comes from `git describe` and is stamped into into `bin/release`; the first run downloads `nfpm`):
`brand.Version`; untagged builds report the fallback in
`internal/brand/brand.go`. Packages need network access the first time
(`nfpm` is fetched with `go run`). Bump the version in `docs/mapsize.1` and
`brand.go` and add a CHANGELOG section before tagging.
### Homebrew
After pushing the tag:
```sh ```sh
make brew-formula # → bin/homebrew/mapsize.rb with the tarball's sha256 make release VERSION=v1.2.0
``` ```
4. Publish the GitHub release with the changelog section as notes:
Copy the result to `Formula/mapsize.rb` in the tap repository ```sh
`github.com/andydixon/homebrew-tap`; users then run awk '/^## 1.2.0/{f=1;next} /^## /{f=0} f' CHANGELOG.md > /tmp/notes.md
`brew install andydixon/tap/mapsize`. The formula builds from source with gh release create v1.2.0 --title v1.2.0 --notes-file /tmp/notes.md bin/release/*
Go, stamps the version and installs the man page. Template: ```
5. Update Homebrew. This needs the tag pushed (step 2), because it
checksums GitHub's source tarball for that tag:
```sh
make brew-formula VERSION=v1.2.0 # writes bin/homebrew/mapsize.rb
git clone https://github.com/andydixon/homebrew-tap /tmp/tap
cp bin/homebrew/mapsize.rb /tmp/tap/Formula/mapsize.rb
git -C /tmp/tap commit -am "mapsize 1.2.0" && git -C /tmp/tap push
```
Users get it with `brew upgrade mapsize`. Template:
`packaging/homebrew/mapsize.rb.in`. `packaging/homebrew/mapsize.rb.in`.
Always pass `VERSION=`: otherwise it comes from `git describe`, which only
matches the tag when HEAD is exactly the tagged commit. `make release` and
the Homebrew formula stamp the version into the binary; `make build` and
`go install` use the value in `brand.go`, which is why step 1 updates it.
The snapshot format is stable at version 1: a format change must bump The snapshot format is stable at version 1: a format change must bump
`snapshot.Version` and keep the reader for version 1. `snapshot.Version` and keep the reader for version 1.
