Release Process
The Kubernetes controller-runtime Project is released on an as-needed basis. The process is as follows:
Note: Releases are done from the release-MAJOR.MINOR
branches. For PATCH releases is not required
to create a new branch you will just need to ensure that all big fixes are cherry-picked into the respective
release-MAJOR.MINOR
branch. To know more about versioning check https://semver.org/.
How to do a release
Create the new branch and the release tag
- Create a new branch
git checkout -b release-<MAJOR.MINOR>
from master - Push the new branch to the remote repository
Now, let's generate the changelog
- Create the changelog from the new branch
release-<MAJOR.MINOR>
(git checkout release-<MAJOR.MINOR>
). You will need to use the [kubebuilder-release-tools][kubebuilder-release-tools] to generate the notes. See [here][release-notes-generation]
Note
- You will need to have checkout locally from the remote repository the previous branch
- Also, ensure that you fetch all tags from the remote
git fetch --all --tags
Draft a new release from GitHub
- Create a new tag with the correct version from the new
release-<MAJOR.MINOR>
branch - Add the changelog on it and publish. Now, the code source is released !
Add a new Prow test the for the new branch release
- Create a new prow test under github.com/kubernetes/test-infra/tree/master/config/jobs/kubernetes-sigs/controller-runtime
for the new
release-<MAJOR.MINOR>
branch. (i.e. for the0.11.0
