Releasing

  • Update version.go with version of release.
  • If the new release updates the OpenTelemetry SDK and/or Semantic Convention versions, update the Latest release built with section in the README.
  • Update CHANGELOG.md with the changes since the last release. Consider automating with a command such as these two:
    • git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD --no-merges --oneline > new-in-this-release.log
    • git log --pretty='%C(green)%d%Creset- %s | [%an](https://github.com/)'
  • Commit changes, push, and open a release preparation pull request for review.
  • Once the pull request is merged, fetch the updated main branch.
  • Apply a tag for the new version on the merged commit (e.g. git tag -a v1.2.3 -m "v1.2.3")
  • Push the tag upstream (this will kick off the release pipeline in CI) e.g. git push origin v1.2.3
  • Ensure that there is a draft GitHub release created as part of CI publish steps.
  • Click "generate release notes" in GitHub for full changelog notes and any new contributors
  • Publish the GitHub draft release - if it is a prerelease (e.g. beta) click the prerelease checkbox.
