Release process

Update the code

Follow the instructions in UPDATING.md to update the code.

Update the package version

If there is no API breakage, update the minor version (X.y -> X.y+1). If there is API breakage, update the major version (X.y -> X+1.0).

Make sure builds are successful on all platforms

There is CI for x86_64 and aarch64 builds, but 32-bit ARM and MIPS builds need manual verfification (or testing downstream).

Tag the release

Tag the release with:

git tag -s -m 'WebRTC AudioProcessing v<X.y>' v<X.y>

Make a tarball

git archive --format 'tar.gz' \
  --prefix 'webrtc-audio-processing-X.y/' -9 vX.y \
  > webrtc-audio-processing-X.y.tar.gz

Do a test build

tar xvf webrtc-audio-processing-X.y.tar.gz
cd webrtc-audio-processing-X.y
meson . build -Dprefix=$PWD/install
ninja -C build
ninja -C build install
cd ..

Checksum the tarball

sha256sum webrtc-audio-processing-X.y.tar.gz \
  > webrtc-audio-processing-X.y.tar.gz.sha256

Publish the files

scp webrtc-audio-processing-*.tar.* \
  annarchy.freedesktop.org:/srv/www.freedesktop.org/www/software/pulseaudio/webrtc-audio-processing/

Push the tag

git push origin master
git push origin vX.y

Update the website

This is currently an embarrassing manual process.

Send out a release announcement

This goes to the pulseaudio-discuss and gstreamer-devel mailing lists, and possibly discuss-webrtc if it seems relevant.
