## To release a new version

Update [CHANGELOG.md](https://github.com/alphagov/govuk_prototype_kit/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) to summarise the changes made since the last release.

To see the commits to be summarised in the changelog since the last release, [compare the latest-release branch with master](https://github.com/alphagov/govuk_prototype_kit/compare/latest-release...master).

Propose a new version number in [VERSION.txt](https://github.com/alphagov/govuk_prototype_kit/blob/master/VERSION.txt) and update line 4 in [package.json](https://github.com/alphagov/govuk_prototype_kit/blob/master/package.json#L4) with the new version number.

Open a new pull request with a single commit including the above changes.

[Here is an example for v6.1.0](https://github.com/alphagov/govuk_prototype_kit/commit/53e36d79a994ce3649b53f4008370cd75068c27c).

Once merged into master a new version will be built.
