MAKING RELEASES
===============
- [ ] ``sudo git clean -xdf``
- [ ] ``./autogen.sh && ./configure``
- [ ] ``make bumpver``
- [ ] Add a new entry to the *NEWS.rst* file (full list of changes should be
generated with ``make shortlog``).
- [ ] Commit all the changes as *New version - $VERSION*.
- [ ] ``make release`` (requires a GPG key to sign the tag)
- [ ] ``git push && git push --tags``
- [ ] Edit the new release (for the new tag) at GitHub and:
- [ ] add some detailed information about it (from the *NEWS.rst*) file to it,
- [ ] upload the tarball created above (``make release``) to the release.
- [ ] Update the documentation by rsyncing the contents of the *docs/html*
folder elsewhere, switching to the *gh-pages* branch, rsyncing the
contents back and commiting it as an update of the docs for the new
release.
