Excerpt

Chorus Release Process

Step-by-step guide to cut a new release of Chorus.

Prerequisites

gh CLI is authenticated (gh auth status)
Working tree is clean (git status)
You are on the develop branch

Steps

1. Fetch remote and identify the diff since last release

# Fetch remote tags and branches so local refs are up to date
git fetch --tags origin

# Find the previous release tag
git tag -l 'v*' --sort=-version:refname | head -5

# List commits since previous tag on develop
git log --oneline v<PREV>..develop

# Review each commit for CHANGELOG-worthy changes
git show --stat <commit-hash>

2. Draft CHANGELOG and get user approval

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
