This file describes how to prepare 'groff' for a new release.
########################################################################
* Update font description files that we generate from external data and
provide with our source distribution.
Directory Format Tool
--------- ------ ----
devX* X11 core/server font xtotroff
The make(1) target "maintainer-font-descriptions" produces these font
descriptions.
* Retrieve current versions of UnicodeData.txt[1] and the Adobe Glyph
List (AGL)[2], and use them with
src/utils/afmtodit/make-afmtodit-tables to update
src/utils/afmtodit/afmtodit.tables.
[1] E.g., <https://www.unicode.org/Public/15.0.0/ucd/UnicodeData.txt>.
Check for the latest _released_ version of Unicode at the time.
Data for the forthcoming release may be available.
[2] <https://github.com/adobe-type-tools/agl-aglfn/blob/master/\
glyphlist.txt>
(<https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adobe-type-tools/agl-aglfn/\
master/glyphlist.txt> may be more convenient.)
* Update the 'gnulib' sub-module to the latest version and the
corresponding required commit hash identifier in 'INSTALL.REPO'.
* Update the release version number where it is hard-coded.
+ NEWS
+ BUG-REPORT
+ arch/mingw/grap2graph.cmd
+ doc/groff.texi (multiple occurrences)
+ doc/webpage.ms
* If the major or minor version number is being incremented, split off
a historical ChangeLog file and add it to `EXTRA_DIST` in Makefile.am.
* Update in 'src/roff/groff/groff.cpp' the 'printf' that displays the
copyright.
* Update the copyright year with 'update-copyright.sh'.
* Increment the version number by tagging the release, beta, or release
candidate. groff requires an explicit three-part version,
major.minor.revision, due to the .Y register.
$ git tag 1.23.0.rc1
