Releasing a new version of software (Perl module) takes a lot of
|
||
|
steps... finding the next version number (and making sure you didn't
|
||
|
already use that version number before), making sure your changelog
|
||
|
is updated, making sure your "make dist" results in a tarball that
|
||
|
builds, commiting changes (with updated version number), tagging,
|
||
|
and uploading the tarball somewhere.
|
||
|
Or maybe more steps. Or not some of the above. Maybe you forgot
|
||
|
something! And maybe you manage multiple projects, and each project
|
||
|
has a different release process.
|
||
|
You want to be hacking, not jumping through hoops.
|
||
|
Your contributors want to see their patches actually make it into
|
||
|
a release, which won't happen if you're afraid of releases.
|
||
|
shipit automates all the hell. It makes life beautiful.
