Release Selector
================
This command configures the tree in preparation for doing a staging release,
and pushes the result to try. The changes that that are made include:
- Updating the version number.
- Applying the migrations that are done as part of merge day.
- Disabling repacking most locales. (This can be disabled by passing ``--no-limit-locales``).
For staging a beta release, run the following (with an appropriate version number):
.. code-block:: shell
$ mach try release --version 64.0b5 --migration central-to-beta
For staging a final release (rc or patch), run the following (with an appropriate version number)
.. code-block:: shell
$ mach try release --version 64.0 --migration central-to-beta --migration beta-to-release
Once the decision task is on the push is complete, you can start the release
.. note::
If pushing from beta or release, the corresponding migration should not be
passed, as they have already been applied.
