RELEASING.md

Releasing

1. Update the VERSION_NAME in gradle.properties to the release version.

2. Update the CHANGELOG.md:

   1. Change the Unreleased header to the release version.
   2. Add a link URL to ensure the header link works.
   3. Add a new Unreleased section to the top.

3. Update the README.md so the "Download" section reflects the new release version and the snapshot section reflects the next "SNAPSHOT" version.

4. Commit

   $ git commit -am "Prepare version X.Y.X"
   

5. Publish

   $ ./gradlew clean publish
   

6. Visit Sonatype Nexus and promote the artifact.

   If this step fails, drop the Sonatype repo, fix, commit, and publish again.

7. Tag

   $ git tag -am "Version X.Y.Z" X.Y.Z
   

8. Update the VERSION_NAME in gradle.properties to the next "SNAPSHOT" version.

9. Commit

   $ git commit -am "Prepare next development version"
   

10. Push!

$ git push && git push --tags
