This guide provides step by step guidance for cutting a new release of Nomad.

1. Bump the version in version/version.go
2. Run make prerelease
3. Commit any changed, generated files.
4. On the Linux Vagrant run make release
5. mv pkg/ pkg2/. We move the compiled packages such that when we run step 6, the binaries are deleted.
6. On a Mac, run make release
7. mv pkg2/* pkg/. This moves all the binaries into the same folder and thus we are ready for releasing.
8. Ensure you have the hc-release environment variables set for being able to read/write to S3. This can be retrieved from 1password.
9. ./scripts/dist.sh <version>. Formating of is 0.x.x(-|rcx|betaX)
10. Bump the version to the new dev version.
11. Remove the generated files and commit
