# Releasing
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Guidance for release managers and maintainers.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Terminology:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- "main" = the master branch, might get renamed in future.
|
||
|
|
- "release" = a release branch, such as 1.22.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Changelogs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Always maintain changelogs in main.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Apply [CONTRIBUTING.md#commit-messages](CONTRIBUTING.html#commit-messages) rules
|
||
|
|
when commiting, pushing, or reviewing/merging pull requests.
|
||
|
|
`tools/commitlint` helps with this, run locally and in CI.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Use `./Shake changelogs` to update them from recent commit messages.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
