8 - i.e., the email address identified by the GPG key is the same as the one in your `~/.gitconfig`
9 - a GitHub fork of Shaarli
10 - a local clone of your Shaarli fork, with the following remotes:
11 - `origin` pointing to your GitHub fork
12 - `upstream` pointing to the main Shaarli repository
13 - maintainer permissions on the main Shaarli repository, to:
14 - push the signed tag
15 - create a new release
16 - [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) needs to be installed
17 - The [venv](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html) Python 3 module needs to be installed for HTML documentation generation.

19 ## GitHub release draft and `CHANGELOG.md`
20 See http://keepachangelog.com/en/0.3.0/ for changelog formatting.
21
22 ### GitHub release draft
23 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`.
24
25 ### `CHANGELOG.md`
26 This file should contain the same information as the release note draft for the upcoming version.
27
28 Update it to:
29
30 - add new entries (additions, fixes, etc.)
31 - mark the current version as released by setting its date and link
32 - add a new section for the future unreleased version
33
34 ```bash
35 $ cd /path/to/shaarli
36
37 $ nano CHANGELOG.md
38
39 [...]
40 ## vA.B.C - UNRELEASED
41 TBA
42
43 ## [vX.Y.Z](https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli/releases/tag/vX.Y.Z) - YYYY-MM-DD
44 [...]
45 ```
46
47
48 ## Increment the version code, update docs, create and push a signed tag
49 ### Update the list of Git contributors
50 ```bash
51 $ make authors
52 $ git commit -s -m "Update AUTHORS"
53 ```
54
55 ### Create and merge a Pull Request
56 This one is pretty straightforward ;-)
57
58 ### Bump Shaarli version to v0.x branch
59
60 ```bash
61 $ git checkout master
62 $ git fetch upstream
63 $ git pull upstream master
64
65 # IF the branch doesn't exists
66 $ git checkout -b v0.5
67 # OR if the branch already exists
68 $ git checkout v0.5
69 $ git rebase upstream/master
70
71 # Bump shaarli version from dev to 0.5.0, **without the `v`**
72 $ vim shaarli_version.php
73 $ git add shaarli_version
74 $ git commit -s -m "Bump Shaarli version to v0.5.0"
75 $ git push upstream v0.5
76 ```
77
78 ### Create and push a signed tag
79 ```bash
80 # update your local copy
81 $ git checkout v0.5
82 $ git fetch upstream
83 $ git pull upstream v0.5
84
85 # create a signed tag
86 $ git tag -s -m "Release v0.5.0" v0.5.0
87
88 # push it to "upstream"
89 $ git push --tags upstream
90 ```
91
92 ### Verify a signed tag
93 [`v0.5.0`](https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli/releases/tag/v0.5.0) is the first GPG-signed tag pushed on the Community Shaarli.
94
95 Let's have a look at its signature!
96
97 ```bash
98 $ cd /path/to/shaarli
99 $ git fetch upstream
100
101 # get the SHA1 reference of the tag
102 $ git show-ref tags/v0.5.0
103 f7762cf803f03f5caf4b8078359a63783d0090c1 refs/tags/v0.5.0
104
105 # verify the tag signature information
106 $ git verify-tag f7762cf803f03f5caf4b8078359a63783d0090c1
107 gpg: Signature made Thu 30 Jul 2015 11:46:34 CEST using RSA key ID 4100DF6F
108 gpg: Good signature from "VirtualTam <virtualtam@flibidi.net>" [ultimate]
109 ```
110
111 ## Publish the GitHub release
112 ### Update release badges
113 Update `README.md` so version badges display and point to the newly released Shaarli version(s), in the `master` branch.
114
115 ### Create a GitHub release from a Git tag
116 From the previously drafted release:
117
118 - edit the release notes (if needed)
119 - specify the appropriate Git tag
120 - publish the release
121 - profit!
122
123 ### Generate and upload all-in-one release archives
124 Users with a shared hosting may have:
125
126 - no SSH access
127 - no possibility to install PHP packages or server extensions
128 - no possibility to run scripts
129
130 To ease Shaarli installations, it is possible to generate and upload additional release archives,
131 that will contain Shaarli code plus all required third-party libraries.
132
133 **From the `v0.5` branch:**
134
135 ```bash
136 $ make release_archive
137 ```
138
139 This will create the following archives:
140
141 - `shaarli-vX.Y.Z-full.tar`
142 - `shaarli-vX.Y.Z-full.zip`
143
144 The archives need to be manually uploaded on the previously created GitHub release.
145
146 ### Update `stable` and `latest` branches
147
148 ```
149 $ git checkout latest
150 # latest release
151 $ git merge v0.5.0
152 # fix eventual conflicts
153 $ make test
154 $ git push upstream latest
155 $ git checkout stable
156 # latest previous major
157 $ git merge v0.4.5
158 # fix eventual conflicts
159 $ make test
160 $ git push upstream stable
161 ```
