Publishing the new version to the npm repository +3. Deploying the badge to snowflake.torproject.org + +The following is a rough guide to getting that done: + +``` +# Clean things up +npm run clean + +# Maybe check what's left behind +git clean -n -d -x + +# Be sure that translation/en/messages.json has been populated with any new +# strings that may have been merged in the recent patches. It may take some +# time for transifex to have updated. You can check with the following, +git submodule update --remote + +# But note that it's also run as part of the "pack-webext" script, so return +# it to previously committed state, +git submodule update + +# Bump and pack the webext, where "x.y.z" is the version being released +npm run pack-webext x.y.z + +# Push the bump commit and tags +git push origin master +git push origin --tags + +# Upload the generated webext.zip (and source.zip) to the webextension stores, +# 1. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/addon/torproject-snowflake/versi... +# 2. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/devconsole/ + +# This time, really clean, because we don't want any extraneous files uploaded +git clean -f -d -x + +# Send it off to npm +npm publish + +# Clean things up +npm run clean + +# From here on out, follow the "Deploying" section of the README +``` + ### Parameters
