The following steps should be performed before releasing a new storm version. Note that in most case a simultaneous release of carl, storm, pycarl and stormpy is preferred.

1. Update CHANGELOG.md To get all the commits from an author since the last tag execute:

   git log last_tag..HEAD --author "author_name"
   

2. Update used carl version:

   • Update GIT_TAG in resources/3rdparty/carl/CMakeLists.txt
   • Maybe update CARL_MINVERSION in resources/3rdparty/CMakeLists.txt

3. Check that storm builds without errors and all tests are successful

   • Travis should run successfully
   • Invoke the script test_build_configurations.py to build and check different cmake configurations

4. Set new storm version:

   • Set new storm version in version.cmake

5. Set new tag in git

   git tag -a new_version
   git push origin new_version
   

   Next we push the tag to GitHub. This step requires the GitHub repo to to be configured as a remote.

   git remote add github https://github.com/moves-rwth/storm.git
   git push github new_version
   

   The new tag should now be visible on GitHub

6. Add new release in GitHub

7. Update Homebrew formula

8. Announce new storm version on website
