We create releases for Phan whenever we want to get new bug fixes or features out to folks that choose to use stable releases.

As of this writing, we're supporting one active version: 5.x.y for the analysis of PHP 7.0 – 8.1 syntax.

  • Support for versions predating 5.0.0 has been dropped

Release Checklist

When creating a new release, make sure you do the following.

  • Update version number and date of NEWS.md.
  • Update version number under CLI::PHAN_VERSION in \Phan\CLI.
  • Build Phar by running internal/make_phar and getting the output under build/phan.phar. See phan/phan#880
  • Generate a phar signature with gpg -u identity@domain --detach-sign --output build/phan.phar.asc build/phan.phar (See #1759). If this is a new key, mention the id and signature there.
  • Create a new release, and uploading the phan.phar file.
    • Make sure you do not mark it as "pre-release", unless we decide to release a release candidate or beta or alpha.
    • Copy or link the release notes from NEWS.md into the release description.

After creating the new release, check packagist.org/packages/phan/phan to make sure it picked up the new release.

Additional post-release tasks:

  • Create PRs to change Phan version in NEWS.md and CLI.php to 5.x.(y+1)-dev
  • Update the most recent Phan version in the wiki (optional for patch releases)
