Release Process for Curricula

How to Create a new Release of a Curriculum

If a group of curators has decided that they want to create a new release, they have to do one of the following.

Minor Release

Let's say there was a new release of a curriculum in 2024, then the git tag for the release will look like this: 2024.1-rev0.

To create a new minor release, all they have to do is to create a tag called 2024.1-rev1 and push it to the repository. GitHub workflows will automatically build and publish the new version.

Major Release

To create a new major release, they have to create a git tag called 2024.2-rev0. It is important to reset the revision to 0 for consistent naming. Push it to the repository, and let GitHub workflows do their magic.

Completely New Release

If the curriculum is completely overhauled, the version number should be changed to the current year or the year when the release is supposed to be released, respectively.

Before a release is created, the group of curators should create at least one release candidate. Let's say the last release is from 2023 (e.g. 2023.2-rev4) and the group of curators would like to create a new release in 2025, then the tag name for the first release candidate would look like this: 2025.1-RC1 (Please note: Release candidates start at 1, compared to revisions which start at 0.)

Push it to the repository and a release candidate is created. The URL for the release candidate is https://public.isaqb.orc/curriculum-NAME/release-candidate.

Once everyone is happy with the current release candidate, they need to create a new git tag called 2025.1-rev0 (in our example) and push it to GitHub, wait a few minutes, and then the new release is done.

Attention: Once a new release is created, everything of the last release candidate is removed!

Having technical difficulties with a curriculum?

The technical setup of curriculums is split up in multiple sub repositories each focussing on a single task. In order to report a problem and requesting help an issue has to be created for the corresponding sub repository. These are categorized as follows:

Be aware that bugs found in these sub repositories are fixed within these before curriculum repositores are updated to use the new versions. Even after an issue is closed it might take a little more time before the curriculum you are working on is also fixed.
