-
-### Backport Commits
-
-For minor versions you need to manually backports any and all commits from the
-master branch which should be part of this release.
-
-### Authors
-
-Update the [.mailmap](.mailmap) and [AUTHORS](AUTHORS) files:
-
-```
-git checkout master
-git log --use-mailmap | grep '^Author:' | cut -f2- -d' ' | sort | uniq > AUTHORS
-```
-
-## Version
-
-Update the version in `version.go`
-
-## Changelog
-
-Edit `CHANGELOG.md`, choose the most important issues and summarize them in multiple groups/paragraphs. Provide links to the mentioned
-issues/PRs. At the start include a link to the milestone's closed issues.
-
-## Git Tag
-
-```
-git commit -v -a -m "Release version $VERSION"
-```
-
-Create a signed tag (tags/v) on the `master` branch (for major
-releases) or the `support` branch (for minor releases).
-
-```
-git tag -s -m "Version $VERSION" v$VERSION
-```
-
-Push the tag:
-
-```
-git push origin tags/v$VERSION
-```
-
-**For major releases:** Create a new `support` branch:
-
-```
-git checkout master
-git push
-
-git checkout -b support/1.0
-git push -u origin support/1.0
-```
-
-
-## Package Builds
-
-```
-mkdir $HOME/projects/icinga/packaging
-cd $HOME/projects/icinga/packaging
-```
-
-### RPM Packages
-
-```
-git clone git@git.icinga.com:icinga/rpm-icingadb.git && cd rpm-icingadb
-```
-
-### DEB Packages
-
-```
-git clone git@git.icinga.com:packaging/deb-icingadb.git && cd deb-icingadb
-```
-
-
-### Branch Workflow
-
-Checkout `master` and create a new branch.
-
-* For releases use x.x as branch name (e.g. 1.0)
-* For releases with revision use x.x.x-n (e.g. 1.0.0-1)
-
-
-### Switch Build Type
-
-Edit file `.gitlab-ci.yml` and comment variable `ICINGA_BUILD_TYPE` out.
-
-```yaml
-variables:
- ...
- #ICINGA_BUILD_TYPE: snapshot
- ...
-```
-
-Commit the change.
-
-```
-git commit -av -m "Switch build type for $VERSION-1"
-```
-
-#### RPM Release Preparations
-
-Set the `Version`, `revision` and `%changelog` inside the spec file:
-
-```
-sed -i "s/Version:.*/Version: $VERSION/g" icingadb.spec
-
-vim icingadb.spec
-
-%changelog
-* Fri Mar 13 2020 Noah Hilverling 1.0.0-1
-- Release 1.0.1
-```
-
-#### DEB and Raspbian Release Preparations
-
-Update file `debian/changelog` and add at the beginning:
-
-```
-icingadb (1.0.0-1) icinga; urgency=medium
-
- * Release 1.0.0
-
- -- Noah Hilverling Fri, 13 Mar 2020 10:50:31 +0100
-```
-
-
-### Release Commit
-
-Commit the changes and push the branch.
-
-```
-git commit -av -m "Release $VERSION-1"
-git push origin 1.0
-```
-
-GitLab will now build snapshot packages based on the tag `v1.0.0` of Icinga DB.
-
-### Package Tests
-
-In order to test the created packages you can download a job's artifacts:
-
-Visit [git.icinga.com](https://git.icinga.com/packaging/rpm-icingadb)
-and navigate to the respective pipeline under `CI / CD -> Pipelines`.
-
-There click on the job you want to download packages from.
-
-The job's output appears. On the right-hand sidebar you can browse its artifacts.
-
-Once there, navigate to `build/RPMS/noarch` where you'll find the packages.
-
-### Release Packages
-
-To build release packages and upload them to [packages.icinga.com](https://packages.icinga.com)
-tag the release commit and push it.
-
-RPM/DEB:
-
-```
-git tag -s $VERSION-1 -m "Release v$VERSION-1"
-git push origin $VERSION-1
-```
-
-Now cherry pick the release commit to `master` so that the changes are transferred back to it.
-
-**Attention**: Only the release commit. *NOT* the one switching the build type!
-
-
-## Build Infrastructure
-
-https://git.icinga.com/packaging/rpm-icingadb/pipelines
-https://git.icinga.com/packaging/deb-icingadb/pipelines
-
-* Verify package build changes for this version.
-* Test the snapshot packages for all distributions beforehand.
-
-Once the release repository tags are pushed, release builds
-are triggered and automatically published to packages.icinga.com
-
-
-## GitHub Release
-
-Create a new release for the newly created Git tag: https://github.com/icinga/icingadb/releases
-
-> Hint: Choose [tags](https://github.com/icinga/icingadb/tags), pick one to edit and
-> make this a release. You can also create a draft release.
-
-The release body should contain a short changelog, with links
-into the roadmap, changelog and blogpost.
