Release checklist

Tasks performed when making a new LuaRocks release:

• Edit rockspec to version it (VER)
• Edit src/luarocks/cfg.lua to version it (cfg.program_version and cfg.program_series)
• Run makedist $VERSION
• Copy luarocks-$VERSION.tar.gz and luarocks-$VERSION-win32.zip to gh-pages/releases
• Edit gh-pages/releases/index.html to add links to both files
• git add new files, git commit everything
• git push the gh-pages branch
• git commit changes to rockspec and src/luarocks/cfg.lua
• git tag v$VERSION
• git push --tags
• Edit rockspec and src/luarocks/cfg.lua back to "scm", commit and push (probably should start doing this with branches instead, but this keeps the release tags in the main linear history)
• Write a luarocks-$VERSION-1.rockspec file based on the previous one.
• Upload rockspec and .src.rock to luarocks.org
• Edit current version number in Download page in the wiki
• Run git diff v$PREV_VERSION v$VERSION to write a changelog summary
• Edit Release history to add new release, including changelog
• Submit PR to http://github.com/leafo/luarocks-site updating static/md/home.md to new release
• Write [ANN] email, usually a variation of the previous announcement, and send to lua-l@lists.lua.org, luarocks-developers@lists.sf.net and luajit@freelists.org (send as separate messages, avoid cross-posting)
