# Releasing
## Prerequisites
* You must have commit rights to the Capistrano repository.
* You must have push rights for the capistrano gem on rubygems.org.
## How to release
1. Run `bundle install` to make sure that you have all the gems necessary for testing and releasing.
2. **Ensure all tests are passing by running `rake spec` and `rake features`.**
3. Determine which would be the correct next version number according to [semver](http://semver.org/).
4. Update the version in `./lib/capistrano/version.rb`.
4. Update the version in the `./README.md` Gemfile example (`gem "capistrano", "~> X.Y"`).
5. Update the `CHANGELOG`.
6. Commit the changelog and version in a single commit, the message should be "Preparing vX.Y.Z"
7. Run `rake release`; this will tag, push to GitHub, and publish to rubygems.org.
