Releasing Nesta

When it comes time to release a new version of the Nesta gem, these are the steps:

  1. Check the versions of Ruby used in .github/workflows are up to date. If new Ruby versions need testing, update the config and re-run the build.

  2. Bump the version number in lib/nesta/version.rb. This will cause the version number in Gemfile.lock to be updated too, so regenerate it now (e.g. run bundle install) and check them in together.

  3. Update the CHANGLOG.md file with a summary of significant changes since the previous release.

  4. Commit these changes with a commit message of 'Bump version to '

  5. Install the gem locally (rake install), then generate a new site with the nesta command. Install the demo content site, check that it runs okay locally.

  6. If everything seems fine, run rake release.

  7. Publish an announcement blog post and email the list.
