# Release checklist
* Run `build-scripts/create-release.py -R libsdl-org/SDL --ref <branch>` to do
a dry run creating the release assets. Verify that the archives are correct.
* Tag the release, e.g. `git tag release-3.8.0; git push --tags`
* Run `build-scripts/create-release.py -R libsdl-org/SDL --ref <release-tag>`
to have GitHub Actions create release assets. This makes sure the revision
string baked into the archives is correct.
* Verify that the source archive REVISION.txt has the correct release tag.
* Sign the source archives and upload everything to libsdl.org
* Create a GitHub release and attach the archives you just generated.
## New feature release

* Bump version number to 3.EVEN.0:
* `./build-scripts/update-version.sh 3 EVEN 0`

* Bump version number from 3.EVEN.0 to 3.(EVEN+1).0
* `./build-scripts/update-version.sh 3 EVEN+1 0`
* Update the website file include/header.inc.php to reflect the new version
