Release Procedure

Pre-release

1. Create a release branch from main:

   git checkout main
   git pull
   git checkout -b release/X.Y.Z

2. Update the version constant in Sources/MinFraudDevice/Config/SDKConfig.swift.

3. Update the version in the README.md installation example if needed.

4. Update CHANGELOG.md: set the release date and document any final changes.

5. Verify the privacy manifest is up to date (Sources/MinFraudDevice/Resources/PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy).

6. Commit the changes, push the branch, and open a pull request.

7. Ensure all CI checks pass and merge the pull request.

Creating a Release

1. Create and push a version tag from main:

   git checkout main
   git pull
   git tag -a X.Y.Z -m "Release X.Y.Z"
   git push origin X.Y.Z

2. Create a GitHub release from the tag at https://github.com/maxmind/device-ios/releases/new.

   • Select the tag you just pushed.
   • Write release notes summarizing changes since the last release.

Post-release

• Verify the new version is resolvable via Swift Package Manager by adding the package dependency in a fresh project.
• Update the version mentioned in the dev docs (or create an issue to do so).

Version Numbering

This project follows Semantic Versioning. Swift Package Manager resolves versions from git tags.
