. venv/bin/activate
pip install -e ".[dev]"
To release a new version:
make release bump=$$VERSION_PART_TO_BUMP$$
The version format for this repo is {major}.{minor}.{patch}
for stable, and
{major}.{minor}.{patch}-{stage}.{devnum}
for unstable (stage
can be alpha or beta).
To issue the next version in line, specify which part to bump,
like make release bump=minor
or make release bump=devnum
. This is typically done from the
master branch, except when releasing a beta (in which case the beta is released from master,
and the previous stable branch is released from said branch).
If you are in a beta version, make release bump=stage
will switch to a stable.
To issue an unstable version when the current version is stable, specify the
new version explicitly, like make release bump="--new-version 4.0.0-alpha.1 devnum"
