When you're ready to release a new version of the Plugin:

1 Update the version number

  • Change in the header comment of the main PHP file to the new version number (in the trunk folder).
  • Change the version number in the 'Stable tag' field of the readme.txt file (in the trunk folder).
  • Add a new sub-section in the 'changelog' section of the readme.txt file, briefly describing what changed compared to the last release.

2 Commit, tag, and push changes to GitHub repo

3 Update SVN

  • Copy files to SVN trunk/
  • Optional? svn update trunk/*
  • Commit them with svn: svn ci -m 'version 1.1 changes'

4 Tag the new version with svn

# You've just checked in the latest and greatest updates # to your plugin, let's tag it with a version number, 2.0. # To do that, copy the files from your trunk/ directory to # a new directory in tags/. # Make sure to use `svn cp` instead of the regular `cp`.

my-local-dir/$ svn cp trunk tags/2.0

A tags/2.0

Now, as always, check in the changes.

my-local-dir/$ svn ci -m "tagging version 2.0"
