# Release checklist

- update CHANGELOG.md
- remove `-devel` from VERSION.txt and set the version correctly
- `go test ./...` must succeed
- release with `git tag -u <user> -m 'Release version <version>' 'v<version>'
  with version as <major>.<minor>.<patch> (e.g. 0.2.3)
- add `-devel` suffix to VERSION.txt
