This document describes how to release Flagger.
To release a new Flagger version (e.g. 2.0.0
) follow these steps:
create a branch git checkout -b prep-2.0.0
set the version in code and manifests TAG=2.0.0 make version-set
commit changes and merge PR
checkout master git checkout main && git pull
tag master make release
After the tag has been pushed to GitHub, the CI release pipeline does the following:
creates a GitHub release
pushes the Flagger binary and change log to GitHub release
pushes the Flagger container image to Docker Hub
pushes the Helm chart to github-pages branch
GitHub pages publishes the new chart version on the Helm repository
The documentation website is built from the docs
branch.
After a Flagger release, publish the docs with:
git checkout main && git pull
git checkout docs
git rebase main
git push origin docs
