.. Docs note: Starting with R5 (May 2021), team agreed that the latest/working
branch will include the current & supported install guides only. The archived
releases will only be available in a release-specific branch. The
instructions below are modified to reflect this change.
.. Making a new release
.. 1. Copy the previous 'upcoming' release to the 'supported' release section.
Copy the old 'supported' folder to the release-specific branch.
Copy the toctree link into the Supported section of install landing page.
Update intro text for the Supported release section to use the
latest version.
.. 2. Add new 'upcoming' release, aka 'Latest' on the version button.
If new upcoming release docs aren't ready, remove toctree from Upcoming
section and just leave intro text. Update text for the upcoming
release version. Once the new upcoming docs are ready, add them in the
toctree here.
.. Adding new release docs
.. 1. Make sure the most recent release versioned docs are complete for that
release.
.. 2. Make a copy of the most recent release folder e.g. 'r6_release.' Rename
the folder for the new release e.g. 'r7_release'.
.. 3. Search and replace all references to previous release number with the new
release number. For example replace all 'R6.0' with 'R7.0.' Also search
and replace any links that may have a specific release number in the path.
.. 4. Link new version on this page (the index page).
