# Release Process
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Pre-Release
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Update go.mod for submodules to depend on the new release which will happen in the next step.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Run the pre-release script. It creates a branch `pre_release_<new tag>` that will contain all release changes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
./pre_release.sh -t <new tag>
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Verify the changes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
git diff master
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This should have changed the version for all modules to be `<new tag>`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. Update the [Changelog](./CHANGELOG.md).
|
||
|
|
- Make sure all relevant changes for this release are included and are in language that non-contributors to the project can understand.
|
||
|
|
To verify this, you can look directly at the commits since the `<last tag>`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
git --no-pager log --pretty=oneline "<last tag>..HEAD"
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Move all the `Unreleased` changes into a new section following the title scheme (`[<new tag>] - <date of release>`).
|
||
|
|
- Update all the appropriate links at the bottom.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4. Push the changes to upstream and create a Pull Request on GitHub.
|
||
|
|
Be sure to include the curated changes from the [Changelog](./CHANGELOG.md) in the description.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Tag
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once the Pull Request with all the version changes has been approved and merged it is time to tag the merged commit.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
***IMPORTANT***: It is critical you use the same tag that you used in the Pre-Release step!
|
||
|
|
Failure to do so will leave things in a broken state.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
***IMPORTANT***: [There is currently no way to remove an incorrectly tagged version of a Go module](https://github.com/golang/go/issues/34189).
|
||
|
|
It is critical you make sure the version you push upstream is correct.
|
||
|
|
[Failure to do so will lead to minor emergencies and tough to work around](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-go/issues/331).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Run the tag.sh script using the `<commit-hash>` of the commit on the master branch for the merged Pull Request.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
./tag.sh <new tag> <commit-hash>
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. Push tags to the upstream remote (not your fork: `github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-go.git`).
|
||
|
|
Make sure you push all sub-modules as well.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
git push upstream <new tag>
|
||
|
|
git push upstream <submodules-path/new tag>
|
||
|
|
...
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Release
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Finally create a Release for the new `<new tag>` on GitHub.
|
||
|
|
The release body should include all the release notes from the Changelog for this release.
|
||
|
|
Additionally, the `tag.sh` script generates commit logs since last release which can be used to supplement the release notes.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Verify Examples
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After releasing verify that examples build outside of the repository.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
./verify_examples.sh
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The script copies examples into a different directory removes any `replace` declarations in `go.mod` and builds them.
|
||
|
|
This ensures they build with the published release, not the local copy.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Contrib Repository
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once verified be sure to [make a release for the `contrib` repository](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-go-contrib/blob/master/RELEASING.md) that uses this release.
