--- title: Releasing weight: 100 --- This page describes how to release a new version of Flamenco. This requires not only access to the sources, but also to the `flamenco.blender.org` infrastructure. As such, it's only practically helpful for a small number of people. ## Steps to release a new version of Flamenco Replace `${VERSION}` with the actual version number. 1. Ensure that env variables are set in the `.env` file (see `.env.example` for reference) 1. Update `CHANGELOG.md` and mark the to-be-released version as released today. 1. Update `web/project-website/data/flamenco.yaml` for the new version. 1. Update `Makefile` and change the `VERSION` and `RELEASE_CYCLE` variables. 1. `make update-version` 1. `git commit -m "Bump version to ${VERSION}"` 1. `git tag v${VERSION}` 1. `make release-package` 1. Check that the files in `dist/` are there and have a non-zero size. 1. `make publish-release-packages` to upload the packages to the website. 1. `make project-website` to generate and publish the new website. 1. `git push && git push --tags`
