Release Management

When to Use

• Preparing production releases
• Bumping semantic versions
• Generating changelogs
• Creating GitHub releases

Procedure

Phase 1: Semantic Versioning

Format: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH

• MAJOR: Breaking API changes
• MINOR: New features (backwards compatible)
• PATCH: Bug fixes only

pnpm version patch   # 2.1.3 → 2.1.4
pnpm version minor   # 2.1.3 → 2.2.0
pnpm version major   # 2.1.3 → 3.0.0

Phase 2: Release Process

1. Create release branch: git checkout -b release/v2.1.0
2. Bump version: pnpm version minor
3. Run full test suite:

   pnpm -C apps/vendor test -- --run
   pnpm -C apps/resource test -- --run
   pnpm -C apps/scheduling test -- --run
   pnpm -C apps/budget test -- --run
   

4. Build: pnpm build
5. Generate changelog from conventional commits
6. Create PR to main

Phase 3: GitHub Release

git tag -a v2.1.0 -m "Release v2.1.0"
git push origin v2.1.0
gh release create v2.1.0 --title "v2.1.0" --notes-file CHANGELOG.md

Phase 4: Post-Release

1. Merge main back to develop
2. Bump to next pre-release: pnpm version prepatch
3. Push tags: git push origin main --tags
4. Monitor error tracking for regressions

Quick Reference

pnpm version minor                # Bump version
git tag -a v2.1.0 -m "Release"   # Tag
gh release create v2.1.0          # GitHub release
git tag --list                     # List all tags

Common Issues

Issue	Solution
Version already tagged	git tag -d v2.1.0 && git push -d origin v2.1.0
Changelog missing commits	Verify commits follow feat:, fix: format
Version mismatch	Re-sync tag with package.json version
