Releasing Foam

1. Get to the latest code
   • git checkout main && git fetch && git rebase
2. Sanity checks
   • yarn reset
   • yarn test
3. Update change log
   • ./packages/foam-vscode/CHANGELOG.md
   • git add *
   • git commit -m"Preparation for next release"
4. Update version
   • $ yarn version-extension <version> (where version is patch/minor/major)
5. Package extension
   • $ yarn package-extension
6. Publish extension
   • $ yarn publish-extension
7. Update the release notes in GitHub
   • in GitHub, top right, click on "releases"
   • select "tags" in top left
   • select the tag that was just released, click "edit" and copy release information from changelog
   • publish (no need to attach artifacts)
8. Announce on Discord

Steps 1 to 6 should really be replaced by a GitHub action...
