Release Workflow

Standard process for releasing new versions across different project types.

Workflow Steps

1. Check Git Status

Ensure clean working directory:

git status --porcelain

2. Run Tests

Execute tests based on project type:

# Go
go test -v ./...

# Python
pytest

# Node.js
npm test

# Bash
bash -n script.sh

# YAML
yamllint .

3. Determine Version

Review existing tags and decide next version:

git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -n 5

Ask user: "What should the next version tag be? (e.g., v1.0.1)"

4. Create Tag

git tag <VERSION>

5. Push Tag

git push origin <VERSION>

6. Verify (Optional)

git ls-remote --tags origin | grep <VERSION>

Version Guidelines

| Change Type | Version Bump | Example | |------------|--------------|---------| | Breaking changes | Major | v1.0.0 → v2.0.0 | | New features | Minor | v1.0.0 → v1.1.0 | | Bug fixes | Patch | v1.0.0 → v1.0.1 |

Common Patterns

git status --porcelain && \
go test -v ./... && \
git tag v1.0.1 && \
git push origin v1.0.1
