• lib/pixman/RELEASING

• Here are the steps to follow to create a new pixman release:
  
  1) Ensure that there are no uncommitted changes or unpushed commits,
     and that you are up to date with the latest commits in the central
     repository. Here are a couple of useful commands:
  
  	git diff			(no output)
  	
  	git status			(should report "nothing to commit")
  
  	git log master...origin		(no output; note: *3* dots)
  
  2) Increment the version in meson.build.
  
  3) Make sure that new version works, including
  
  	- meson test passes
  
  	- the X server still works with the new pixman version
  	  installed
  
  	- the cairo test suite hasn't gained any new failures compared
  	  to last pixman version.
  
  4) Use "git commit" to record the changes made in step 2 and 3.
  
  5) Generate and publish the tar files by running 
  
  	make PREV=<last version> GPGKEY=<your gpg key id> release-publish
  
     If your freedesktop user name is different from your local one,
     then also set the variable USER to your freedesktop user name.
  
  6) Run 
  
  	make release-publish-message
  
     to generate a draft release announcement. Edit it as appropriate and
     send it to 
  
  	cairo-announce@cairographics.org
  
  	pixman@lists.freedesktop.org
  
  	xorg-announce@lists.freedesktop.org
  
  7) Increment pixman_micro to the next larger (odd) number in
     configure.ac. Commit this change, and push all commits created
     during this process using
  
  	git push
  	git push --tags
  
     You must use "--tags" here; otherwise the new tag will not
     be pushed out.
  
  8) Change the topic of the #cairo IRC channel on freenode to advertise
     the new version.
