Raw Blame History

This document lists the steps that lead to a successful release of the Nix library.

Before Release

Nix uses cargo release to automate the release process. Based on changes since the last release, pick a new version number following semver conventions. For nix, a change that drops support for some Rust versions counts as a breaking change, and requires a major bump.

The release is prepared as follows:

  • Ask for a new libc version if, necessary. It usually is. Then update the dependency in Cargo.toml accordingly.
  • Confirm that everything's ready for a release by running cargo release --dry-run <patch|minor|major>
  • Create the release with cargo release <patch|minor|major>
