From f3e0602802c7840992c97f4960515777cad6a5c7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Ralf W. Grosse-Kunstleve" Date: Sun, 23 Jul 2023 11:10:10 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Add command to check for vX.Y.Z tag vs pybind11/_version.py consistency. (#4757) * Add command to check for vX.Y.Z tag vs pybind11/_version.py consistency. Piggy-backing hints for converting changelog to release message. * Simpler way of double-checking version number in sources vs. git tag * Even simpler. * Fix rst rendering (hopefully) and remove stray dots. * [ci skip] Trying more to make GitHub rst renderer show this nicely. * [ci skip] Fix up RST rendering issues. Lesson learned: This is NOT GOOD: ``` - Bullet nesting level 1. - Bullet nesting level 2. ``` This is BETTER: ``` - Bullet nesting level 1. - Bullet nesting level 2. ``` Also consistently adding empty lines between bullet points, to make the .rst file easier to read. Also piggy-backing a few very minor enhancements. --- docs/release.rst | 131 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------- 1 file changed, 86 insertions(+), 45 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/release.rst b/docs/release.rst index 4d390a07cf..20b53a355f 100644 --- a/docs/release.rst +++ b/docs/release.rst @@ -15,8 +15,8 @@ For example: For beta, ``PYBIND11_VERSION_PATCH`` should be ``Z.b1``.
