## Releasing a new version
1. Ensure dependencies are up-to-date.
2. Run [`irctest`]() over it to make sure nothing's severely broken.
3. Remove `-unreleased` from the version number in `irc/constants.go`.
4. Update the changelog with new changes.
5. Remove unused sections from the changelog, change the date/version number and write release notes.
6. Commit the new changelog and constants change.
7. Tag the release with `git tag v0.0.0 -m "Release v0.0.0"` (`0.0.0` replaced with the real ver number).
8. Build binaries using the Makefile, upload release to Github including the changelog and binaries.
Once it's built and released, you need to setup the new development version. To do so:
1. In `irc/constants.go`, update the version number to `0.0.1-unreleased`, where `0.0.1` is the previous release number with the minor field incremented by one (for instance, `0.9.2` -> `0.9.3-unreleased`).
2. At the top of the changelog, paste a new section with the content below.
3. Commit the new version number and changelog with the message `"Setup v0.0.1-unreleased devel ver"`.

## Updating `vendor/` ## Updating `vendor/`
The `vendor/` directory holds our dependencies. When we import new repos, we need to update this folder to contain these new deps. This is something that I'll mostly be handling.
