How to release
==============
**Developing**
* First, develop some new features to release! As you do, make sure to keep the documentation
up-to-date.
**Testing**
* Run `super-test.sh` on as many platforms as you have available. Remember that you can easily run
on any machine available through ssh using `./super-test.sh remote [hostname]`. Also run in
Clang mode. (If you are Kenton and running from Kenton's home machine and network, use
`./super-test.sh kenton` to run on all supported compilers and platforms.)
`./mega-test.py mega-test.cfg` to run on all supported compilers and platforms.)
* Manually test Windows/MSVC -- unfortunately this can't be automated by super-test.sh.
* Manually run the pointer fuzz tests under Valgrind. This will take 40-80 minutes.
valgrind ./capnp-test -fcapnp/fuzz-test.c++
* Manually run the AFL fuzz tests by running `afl-fuzz.sh`. There are three test cases, and ideally each should run for 24 hours or more.
**Documenting**
* Write a blog post discussing what is new, placing it in doc/_posts.
* Run jekyll locally and review the blog post and docs.
**Releasing**
* Check out the master branch in a fresh directory. Do NOT use your regular repo, as the release
script commits changes and if anything goes wrong you'll probably want to trash the whole thing
without pushing. DO NOT git clone the repo from an existing local repo -- check it out directly
