Creating a release

GitHub

You can create a new release on GitHub.

Enter the tag version that month, i.e for September 2016 you would enter 201609.

Enter a title, we usually use August 2016 Release

Enter a placeholder for the body, we will edit this later.

Create changelog

We utilise Readmegen to automatically populate the Changelog.

Install readmegen using composer:

./scripts/composer_wrapper.php install

You can now create the update change log by running (201608 was our last release):

./vendor/bin/readmegen --from 201608 --release 201609

Now commit and push the change that has been made to doc\General\Changelog.md
