| How to prepare a new release |
| ---------------------------- |
| |
| . include/freetype/freetype.h: Update FREETYPE_MAJOR, FREETYPE_MINOR, |
| and FREETYPE_PATCH. |
| |
| . builds/unix/configure.ac (version_info): Update according to the |
| libtool rules, then regenerate the configure script with the |
| top-level `autogen.sh'. After that, update `config.guess' and |
| `config.sub' to the most recent versions (from the `config' CVS |
| repository). |
| |
| Assure that the most recent versions of autoconf and libtool are |
| used while calling `autogen.sh'. |
| |
| . builds/freetype.mk (refdoc): Update the `--title' option. |
| |
| . docs/CHANGES: Document differences to last release. |
| |
| . README: Update. |
| |
| . docs/VERSION.DLL: Document changed `version_info'. |
| |
| . ChangeLog: Announce new release (both freetype2 and ft2demos). |
| |
| . Call `make refdoc' to update HTML reference. Copy it to |
| freetype.freedesktop.org:/srv/freetype.freedesktop.org/\ |
| freetype2/docs/reference. |
| |
| TODO: Create FreeType home page CVS on savannah.nongnu.org and |
| update it accordingly. |
| |
| Write script to automatically do this. |
| |
| Mirror FreeType's savannah home page everywhere. |
| |
| . Tag the CVS (freetype2, ft2demos). |
| |
| TODO: Tag the home page CVS on savannah.nongnu.org. |
| |
| . Create packages for freetype2, ft2demos, and documentation (in zip, |
| .tar.gz, and .tar.bz2 format). |
| |
| Assure that the .zip file uses CR/LF at line ends -- but *not* for |
| images! |
| |
| TODO: Write scripts and/or provide make targets to do that. |
| |
| . Create signature files with `gpg -b' and upload files to savannah |
| and sourceforge. |
| |
| TODO: Write script to do this. Cf. automake's `gnupload' script. |
| |
| . Announce new release on freetype-announce@nongnu.org and to relevant |
| newsgroups. |
