Description (last modified by zaytsev) (diff)

While preparing for the release:

  • Create a branch with code cleanup commits in this ticket
  • Update NEWS file
  • New tag in git
  • New version in Trac
  • Package tar.(gz|bzip|lzma) files
  • Make checksums for archives
  • Upload source packages and fixups to ​http://www.midnight-commander.org/downloads
  • Try to download, verify checksums, build and install tarballs
  • Update Wiki start page with latest release number
  • Write an announcement: list user visible changes (bugs and features)
  • Create new NEWS file :)
  • PROFIT

Please remember that after -pre4 we will release 4.7.0. Therefore no changes to the i18n-related stuff and no new features are allowed, bugfixing only. We need to prepare translations and contact i18n teams.

New NEWS File must contain the changes between the previous stable release (mc-4.6.2) and current stable (mc-4.7.0). Therefore we need to collect changesets from all NEWS-4.7.0-pre* files.
