* Update manpages, see [gen-manpages.sh](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/blob/master/contrib/devtools/README.md#gen-manpagessh).
* Update hardcoded [seeds](/contrib/seeds)
Before every minor and major release:
* * *
* Update [bips.md](bips.md) to account for changes since the last release.
* Update version in sources (see below)
* Write release notes (see below)
* Update `src/chainparams.cpp` nMinimumChainWork with information from the getblockchaininfo rpc.
* Update `src/chainparams.cpp` defaultAssumeValid with information from the getblockhash rpc.
- The selected value must not be orphaned so it may be useful to set the value two blocks back from the tip.
- Testnet should be set some tens of thousands back from the tip due to reorgs there.
- This update should be reviewed with a reindex-chainstate with assumevalid=0 to catch any defect
that causes rejection of blocks in the past history.
Before every major release:
* Update hardcoded [seeds](/contrib/seeds/README.md). TODO: Give example PR for Dash
* Update [`BLOCK_CHAIN_SIZE`](/src/qt/intro.cpp) to the current size plus some overhead.
### First time / New builders
If you're using the automated script (found in [contrib/gitian-build.sh](/contrib/gitian-build.sh)), then at this point you should run it with the "--setup" command. Otherwise ignore this.

doc/README*
doc/Doxyfile
contrib/gitian-descriptors/*.yml

- `configure.ac`:

- `_CLIENT_VERSION_MINOR`

# tag version in git
Write release notes. git shortlog helps a lot, for example:
git tag -s v(new version, e.g. 0.8.0)
git shortlog --no-merges v(current version, e.g. 0.12.2)..v(new version, e.g. 0.12.3)
# write release notes. git shortlog helps a lot, for example:
Generate list of authors:

### Setup and perform Gitian builds
If you're using the automated script (found in [contrib/gitian-build.sh](/contrib/gitian-build.sh)), then at this point you should run it with the "--build" command. Otherwise ignore this.
Setup Gitian descriptors:
Setup Gitian descriptors:
pushd ./dash
export SIGNER=(your Gitian key, ie bluematt, sipa, etc)
export VERSION=(new version, e.g. 0.8.0)
git fetch
git checkout v${VERSION}
popd
pushd ./dash

### Fetch and create inputs: (first time, or when dependency versions change)
mkdir -p inputs
wget -P inputs https://bitcoincore.org/cfields/osslsigncode-Backports-to-1.7.1.patch
wget -P inputs http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/osslsigncode/osslsigncode/osslsigncode-1.7.1.tar.gz

popd
Create the OS X SDK tarball, see the [OS X readme](README_osx.md) for details, and copy it into the inputs directory.
Create the OS X SDK tarball, see the [OS X readme](README_osx.md) for details, and copy it into the inputs directory.
### Optional: Seed the Gitian sources cache and offline git repositories
By default, Gitian will fetch source files as needed. To cache them ahead of time:
make -C ../dash/depends download SOURCES_PATH=`pwd`/cache/common
pushd ./gitian-builder
make -C ../dash/depends download SOURCES_PATH=`pwd`/cache/common
popd
Only missing files will be fetched, so this is safe to re-run for each build.
NOTE: Offline builds must use the --url flag to ensure Gitian fetches only from local URLs. For example:
```
./bin/gbuild --url dash=/path/to/dash,signature=/path/to/sigs {rest of arguments}
```
pushd ./gitian-builder
./bin/gbuild --url dash=/path/to/dash,signature=/path/to/sigs {rest of arguments}
popd
The gbuild invocations below <b>DO NOT DO THIS</b> by default.

git add ${VERSION}-osx-unsigned/${SIGNER}
git commit -a

Wait for Windows/OS X detached signatures:
Once the Windows/OS X builds each have 3 matching signatures, they will be signed with their respective release keys.
Detached signatures will then be committed to the [dash-detached-sigs](https://github.com/dashpay/dash-detached-sigs) repository, which can be combined with the unsigned apps to create signed binaries.

### After 3 or more people have gitian-built and their results match:
- Create `SHA256SUMS.asc` for the builds, and GPG-sign it:
```bash
sha256sum * > SHA256SUMS
```
The list of files should be:
```
dash-${VERSION}-aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.gz
dash-${VERSION}-arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.gz
dash-${VERSION}-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.gz
dash-${VERSION}-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz
dash-${VERSION}-osx64.tar.gz

dash-${VERSION}.tar.gz
dash-${VERSION}-win32-setup.exe
dash-${VERSION}-win32.zip
dash-${VERSION}-win64-setup.exe
dash-${VERSION}-win64.zip
```
The `*-debug*` files generated by the gitian build contain debug symbols
for troubleshooting by developers. It is assumed that anyone that is interested
in debugging can run gitian to generate the files for themselves. To avoid
end-user confusion about which file to pick, as well as save storage
space *do not upload these to the dash.org server*.
- GPG-sign it, delete the unsigned file:
```
gpg --digest-algo sha256 --clearsign SHA256SUMS # outputs SHA256SUMS.asc
rm SHA256SUMS
