Mockito implements Continuous Delivery model. Every change on the main branch (for example merging a pull request) triggers a release build on CI. The build publishes new version if specific criteria are met: all tests green, no 'ci skip release' used in commit message, see the build log for more information. Every new version is published to "mockito/maven" Bintray repository. New versions that Mockito team deems "notable" are additionally published to Maven Central and JCenter. We used to publish every version to Maven Central but we changed this strategy based on feedback from the community (#911).

Q: How to publish to Maven Central?
A: Include "[ci maven-central-release]" in the merge commit when merging the PR. Hint: To signify a new feature consider updating version to next minor/major, like: "2.8.0", "2.9.0", "3.0.0".
