Releasing

  1. Bump version number in lib/yabeda/activerecord/version.rb

    In case of pre-releases keep in mind rubygems/rubygems#3086 and check version with command like Gem::Version.new(Yabeda::ActiveRecord::VERSION).to_s

  2. Fill CHANGELOG.md with missing changes, add header with version and date.

  3. Make a commit:

    git add lib/yabeda/active_record/version.rb CHANGELOG.md
    version=$(ruby -r ./lib/yabeda/active_record/version.rb -e "puts Gem::Version.new(Yabeda::ActiveRecord::VERSION)")
    git commit --message="${version}: " --edit
  4. Create annotated tag:

    git tag v${version} --annotate --message="${version}: " --edit --sign
  5. Fill version name into subject line and (optionally) some description (list of changes will be taken from changelog and appended automatically)

  6. Push it:

    git push --follow-tags
  7. GitHub Actions will create a new release, build and push gem into RubyGems! You're done!
