Release

Use this page to cut a release. The <version> element in application.properties, an XML file, is the source of truth for the version.

Cut a release

1. Publish a GitHub release with a tag such as v0.1.0. Release Drafter keeps a draft ready from pushes to main.
2. sync-version-on-release.yml runs and compares the tag to application.properties. If they match, it stops.
3. If they differ, it updates <version> in application.properties and the top-level version in package.json, then squash-merges a release-sync/<version> pull request into main.

That merge reaches production through the normal deploy.
