Research direction

Start by checking the milestone’s other issues and its “Done when” criteria, then review the release workflow and Directory.Build.props. Follow the listed release steps: verify the build and test jobs, test the draft AppImage and update paths, then record the published release in ROADMAP.md. Done means v1.5.0 is published, the specified checks pass, and the roadmap lists it under Shipped.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Release 1.5.0 once every other issue in this milestone is closed and the milestone's "Done when" holds.

What to do

  1. A pull request titled chore(release): 1.5.0 bumps the version in Directory.Build.props. It merges like any other change, once the three "Build and test" jobs pass.
  2. Tag the merged commit on main as v1.5.0 and push the tag. v* tags can't be moved or deleted, so check the commit first. The release workflow packs every platform, runs the smoke tests and opens a draft release.
  3. Before publishing, open the draft's AppImage in WSLg with scratch folders and try the milestone's new features there.
  4. The owner publishes the draft. Installed copies only see published releases, and winget.yml submits it to winget.
  5. After publishing:
    • a portable 1.4.0 on Windows finds 1.5.0 in Settings › Updates, updates, restarts into it and keeps its library, and its bundled prompuff moves to 1.5.0 too
    • update-check.yml, run by hand, finds 1.5.0 from 1.4.0 on Windows, Ubuntu and macOS
  6. A docs: record the 1.5.0 release pull request adds the row to Shipped in ROADMAP.md and a "Checked for 1.5.0" decision with what was checked by hand.

Done when

  • v1.5.0 is published on the releases page, and the checks above passed.
  • ROADMAP.md lists it under Shipped.
