+See [Git - Maintaining a project - Tagging your
+releases](http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Distributed-Git-Maintaining-a-Project#Tagging-Your-Releases).
+
+## Prerequisites
+This guide assumes that you have:
+- a GPG key matching your GitHub authentication credentials
+ - i.e., the email address identified by the GPG key is the same as the one in your `~/.gitconfig`
+- a GitHub fork of Shaarli
+- a local clone of your Shaarli fork, with the following remotes:
+ - `origin` pointing to your GitHub fork
+ - `upstream` pointing to the main Shaarli repository
+- maintainer permissions on the main Shaarli repository, to:
+ - push the signed tag
+ - create a new release
+- [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) and [Pandoc](http://pandoc.org/) need to be installed
+
+## GitHub release draft and `CHANGELOG.md`
+See http://keepachangelog.com/en/0.3.0/ for changelog formatting.
+
+### GitHub release draft
+GitHub allows drafting the release note for the upcoming release, from the [Releases](https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli/releases) page. This way, the release note can be drafted while contributions are merged to `master`.
+
+### `CHANGELOG.md`
+This file should contain the same information as the release note draft for the upcoming version.
+
+Update it to:
+- add new entries (additions, fixes, etc.)
+- mark the current version as released by setting its date and link
+- add a new section for the future unreleased version
+
+```bash
+$ cd /path/to/shaarli
+
+$ nano CHANGELOG.md
+
+[...]
+## vA.B.C - UNRELEASED
+TBA
+
+## [vX.Y.Z](https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli/releases/tag/vX.Y.Z) - YYYY-MM-DD
+[...]
+```
+
+
+## Increment the version code, updated docs, create and push a signed tag
+### Generate documentation
+```bash
+$ cd /path/to/shaarli
+
+# create a new branch
+$ git fetch upstream
+$ git checkout upstream/master -b v0.5.0
+
+# rebuild the documentation from the wiki
+$ make htmldoc
+
+# commit the changes
+$ git add doc
+$ git commit -s -m "Generate documentation for v0.5.0"
+
+# push the commit on your GitHub fork
+$ git push origin v0.5.0
+```
+
+### Create and merge a Pull Request
+This one is pretty straightforward ;-)
+
+### Bump Shaarli version to v0.x branch
+
+```
+$ git checkout master
+$ git fetch upstream
+$ git pull upstream master
+
+# IF the branch doesn't exists
+$ git checkout -b v0.5
+# OR if the branch already exists
+$ git checkout v0.5
+$ git rebase upstream/master
+
+# Bump shaarli version from dev to 0.5.0, **without the `v`**
+$ vim shaarli_version.php
+$ git add shaarli_version
+$ git commit -s -m "Bump Shaarli version to v0.5.0"
+$ git push upstream v0.5
+```
+
+### Create and push a signed tag
+```bash
+# update your local copy
+$ git checkout v0.5
+$ git fetch upstream
+$ git pull upstream v0.5
+
+# create a signed tag
+$ git tag -s -m "Release v0.5.0" v0.5.0
+
+# push it to "upstream"
+$ git push --tags upstream
+```
+
+### Verify a signed tag
+[`v0.5.0`](https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli/releases/tag/v0.5.0) is the first GPG-signed tag pushed on the Community Shaarli.
+
+Let's have a look at its signature!
+
+```bash
+$ cd /path/to/shaarli
+$ git fetch upstream
+
+# get the SHA1 reference of the tag
+$ git show-ref tags/v0.5.0
+f7762cf803f03f5caf4b8078359a63783d0090c1 refs/tags/v0.5.0
+
+# verify the tag signature information
+$ git verify-tag f7762cf803f03f5caf4b8078359a63783d0090c1
+gpg: Signature made Thu 30 Jul 2015 11:46:34 CEST using RSA key ID 4100DF6F
+gpg: Good signature from "VirtualTam <virtualtam@flibidi.net>" [ultimate]
+```
+
+## Publish the GitHub release
+### Update release badges
+Update `README.md` so version badges display and point to the newly released Shaarli version(s), in the `master` branch.
+
+### Create a GitHub release from a Git tag
+From the previously drafted release:
+- edit the release notes (if needed)
+- specify the appropriate Git tag
+- publish the release
+- profit!
+
+### Generate and upload all-in-one release archives
+Users with a shared hosting may have:
+- no SSH access
+- no possibility to install PHP packages or server extensions
+- no possibility to run scripts
+
+To ease Shaarli installations, it is possible to generate and upload additional release archives,
+that will contain Shaarli code plus all required third-party libraries.
+
+**From the `v0.5` branch:**
+
+```bash
+$ make release_archive
+```
+
+This will create the following archives:
+- `shaarli-vX.Y.Z-full.tar`
+- `shaarli-vX.Y.Z-full.zip`
+
+The archives need to be manually uploaded on the previously created GitHub release.
+
+### Update `stable` and `latest` branches
+
+```
+$ git checkout latest
+# latest release
+$ git merge v0.5.0
+# fix eventual conflicts
+$ make test
+$ git push upstream latest
+$ git checkout stable
+# latest previous major
+$ git merge v0.4.5
+# fix eventual conflicts
+$ make test
+$ git push upstream stable
+```
