This is the release strategy for appdevdesigns/app_builder.

Create releases on GitHub for each new version.

Versioning

Versions should follow: Major . Minor . Build . Patch

• Increment Major for significant/breaking changes
• Increment Minor for changes used in a production environment
• Increment Build for Sprints and Small Changes
• Increment Patch for bug fixes

Servers

In general servers should use a release from master. Suggested release for server type:
In this context the Dev, Staging, and Production refer to Apps within AppBuilder.

• Dev - use the latest release (build)
• Staging - use the planned version for production
• Production - use a Minor release

Workflow

• At the start of a Sprint new feature branches from develop
  • Merge to #develop
  • Test
  • At the end of Sprint Merge #develop to #master (increment build number)
  • Significant changes can be added to a release branch for testing and bug fixes

• Bug fixes branch from master
  • Merge to #master (increment patch) and #develop
• To patch bugs in old minor versions needed for live sites:
  • Create a branch from the release and make fixes
  • Create a new release on the patch branch
  • merge to #develop and #master
