# How to make a xkeyboard-config release

### Prerequisites

- Have write access to xkeyboard-config Git repositories.

### Steps

#### Prepare the translations

**2 weeks before release:**

- [ ] Create a release branch: `git checkout -b release/MAJOR.PREV_MINOR.99 master`
  where `MAJOR.PREV_MINOR` is the *last* released version.

- [ ] Bump the `version` in `meson.build` to `MAJOR.PREV_MINOR.99`.

- [ ] Run `meson setup buildddir; meson dist -C builddir` to make sure the release is good to go.

- [ ] Run `meson compile -C builddir xkeyboard-config-pot` to update `po/xkeyboard-config.pot` file.

- [ ] Commit `meson.build` and `po/xkeyboard-config.pot` with subject “String freeze MAJOR.MINOR”.

- [ ] Create a pull request with subject “String freeze MAJOR.MINOR” and
  description:

  > Bump version to send to the [Translation Project]
  > [Translation Project]: https://translationproject.org/html/maintainers.html

  and ensure *all* CI is green.

- [ ] Merge the pull request.

- [ ] Send `po/xkeyboard-config.pot` and `builddir/meson-dist/xkeyboard-config-MAJOR.PREV_MINOR.tar.xz` to Translation Project asking for translations update: <coordinator@translationproject.org>. See the [instructions from the TP].

[instructions from the TP]: https://translationproject.org/html/maintainers.html

- [ ] Give the Translation Project *2 weeks* to update translations.
