How to do a release

• Have all of the 6 core Cro projects
  • cro-core
  • cro-tls
  • cro-http
  • cro-websocket
  • cro-webapp
  • cro as well as the website (cro-website) checked out in a folder.
• Ensure the fez program is available and you are logged in and are a member of the cro org.
• Ensure all the clones of each project have a remote called origin that allows writes.
• Change the version numbers in versions.json to the versions you want to release. Keep the versions of modules you don't want to release unchanged.
• Run release.raku --prepare in the parent folder of of the above mentioned repos. This will then automatically do the following:
  • git pull in all the repos
  • Create a commit and push in cro that bumps the OCI image version.
  • For each distro that has a changed version number in versions.json:
    • Update the version and api in META6.json.
    • Update all the depends versions of the other Cro distros in META6.json.
    • Update the version in the Changes file.
    • Create a commit and push.
  • Create and push a release tag in all updated distros.
  • Add a skeleton release announcement section to cro-website/docs/releases.md.
• Complete the pre-generated release notes in cro-website/docs/releases.md.
• Commit, push and publish the release announcement.
• Commit and push the changes to the versions.json file.
