# Publish
Guide to publishing the binary and associated crates.
## 1. Update Changelog
Ensure that the changelog is updated for a new release. The CI build requires
that the release version is specified in the format: `[VERSION] - DATE`.
1. Update the changelog by changing `[Unreleased]` to the latest version and
date.
2. Re-add a new `[Unreleased]` header at the top.
3. At the bottom, add a new link for the current version.
4. Update the `[Unreleased]` link with the latest tag.
## 2. Update READMEs
Each crate README has a reference to installing a specific version and needs to
be updated.
e.g. Open `distant-core/README.md` and replace `0.17` with `0.18` if applicable
## 3. Update Crate Versions
Run a command to update the crate versions. An easy way is to use `sed`.
On Mac, this would be `sed -i '' "s~0.17.4~0.17.5~g" **/*.toml` where the old
and new versions would be specified.
*Make sure to review the changed files! Sometimes a version overlaps with
another crate and then we've bumped something wrong!*
## 4. Build to get Cargo.lock update
Run `cargo build` to get a new `Cargo.lock` refresh and commit it.
## 5. Tag Commit
Tag the release commit with the form `vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH` by using
`git tag vMAJOR.MINOR.PATCH` and publish the tag via `git push --tags`.
Once the tag is pushed, a new job will start to build and publish the artifacts
on Github.
## 6. Publish Crates
Now, `cd` into each sub-crate and publish. Sometimes, it takes a little while
for a crate to be indexed after getting published. This can lead to the publish
of a downstream crate to fail. If so, try again in a couple of seconds.
1. **distant-net:** `(cd distant-net && cargo publish)`
2. **distant-core:** `(cd distant-core && cargo publish)`
3. **distant-ssh2:** `(cd distant-ssh2 && cargo publish)`
4. **distant:** `cargo publish`
## 7. Celebrate
Another release done!
