Release process

Generating Changelog

Install dependencies

$ npm install -g conventional-changelog-cli
$ cd rust-cid
$ conventional-changelog --preset angular

Add the output of that to CHANGELOG.md, and write a human-centric summary of changes. Update the linked output to reference the new version, which conventional-changelog doesn't know about:

# [](https://github.com/multiformats/rust-cid/compare/v0.9.0...v) (2022-12-22)

becomes:

# [v0.10.0](https://github.com/multiformats/rust-cid/compare/v0.9.0...v0.10.0) (2022-12-22)

Publishing

Publishing on crates.io, bumping version & generating tags is done using cargo-release.

This requires the following permissions

• on github.com/multiformats/rust-cid
  • creating tags
  • pushing to master
• on crates.io
  • publish access to all published crates

Dry run

$ cargo release <patch|minor|major>

Actual publishing

$ cargo release --execute <patch|minor|major>
