In general, we need mechanisms to:

  • Prevent releases on broken builds
  • Prevent releases on an incorrect branch
  • Prevent releases that contain no changes
  • Generate release notes
  • Update the changelog with release notes and commit
  • Calculate the new version number
  • Create a git tag with that version number
  • Create a new release branch for major/minor versions
  • Push new tag to origin

These mechanisms should then compose together such that there is a clean and usable interface to:

  1. Release a patch on a release branch
  2. Release a minor version on mainline
  3. Release a major version on mainline
