Creating a release¶

1. Fetch the latest copy of the upstream repository

git checkout master

2. Run

git clean -xfd

to clean out any old builds

3. Tag the current version using the github releases page: https://github.com/heliopython/heliopy/releases
4. Fetch the newly created tag

git fetch upstream
git merge --ff-only upstream/master

5. Create a source distribution and a python wheel

python setup.py sdist
python setup.py bdist_wheel

6. Upload created wheels to pypi

twine upload dist/*

See https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/distributing-packages/#packaging-your-project for more information.
